(Author here) Thanks for the feedback! I originally wrote this in 2007 when I was diving into Javascript to build instacalc.com. I agree with the examples vs. trying to read in a book. Books often get in their own way, trying to overgeneralize: just show me the code! If I already know how to program, having 5-10 reference examples of every language feature should be enough. You don't need to explain what a conditional is, etc. I'll put in a link to that object deep dive :).
