Eloquent JavaScript is an “opinionated guide to programming” written by Marijn Haverbeke. It’s been around for a few years now, but if you haven’t seen it before it’s definitely worth a look. It has 14 chapters with two appendices, and is available for free!
It covers important topics like functional programming, modularity, events, and some interesting obscure control structures. The text includes verbose examples complete with syntax highlighting. Haverbeke even references libraries like jQuery and Prototype.
