Marijn,

Re: "Master basic programming techniques"

Would you recommend your book as a first programming book for designers that want to learn to code? We have a few employees that come from a print design background that are wanting to learn JS to move into web work, and I'd buy a half a dozen copies if this is an appropriate intro for them. Otherwise, I'll just buy one copy and solicit recommendations for a book to teach programming using JS. [I normally recommend Python and Scheme books to learn programming, but that seems like a long way around for people that only want/need to learn JS.]

Love your CL work, BTW.

Yes. Though if you want immediate results, EJS might not be quite as practical as you'd like -- it tries to find a middle way between theory and practice.
