I'll add two cents: as someone very new to JavaScript, I like the idea of a rapid introduction to the language and then straight into jQuery (which I would expect to use more than "raw" JS for the near future anyhow).
Also, putting the book on GitHub was genius. There are already 13 forks, and the author has been very quick to respond to issues posted there. (Full disclosure - one of the forks is mine. I can't contribute to the jQuery part, but I tried to help out with the installer script when the author mentioned it was a bit wonky.) Releasing a book in this way allows people to add value (if they can), and it's great to see an innovative use of GitHub. (There may be lots of other books available there, but it's new to me if so.)
