Thanks for pointing this out. That chapter was a complete eye opener for me. When you're new to not just Node but programming itself - understanding the terms used is in itself a challenge. I'm writing my very first app and i chose to do it in Node. I started to suspect i was going to hit the problems described in this chapter very soon but i had no clue what terms to search or where to look. At least now i know what control flow actually means, and while i havent understood the examples completely at least its given me enough of a taster to start thinking about it.

May I mention that I have an entire book on this subject coming out in March? http://leanpub.com/asyncjs/ http://leanpub.com/asyncjs/

  Yes you may. Thanks. Could you please tell me at what level this book is aimed at? Experienced developers, average? Complete beginners?

    Intermediate. It would work well as the second book you read on JavaScript (or, given the way most devs come to JavaScript, the book you read after reading a book on jQuery). But there's stuff in there that even experienced devs might not know about, like Promises and control flow libs like Async.js.
