Seconded! After years of ignoring Javascript, I'm relieved at how this book brings it all together - explains the whole language, modules, and puts the ugly/avoidable bits of language history in context. I agree it's only a book you'd want to learn from if you already know another language - it's a terse, conceptual ground-up description.
