Have you picked up any O'Reilly books recently? The quality is completely variable from title to title. Of the last 3 O'Reilly books I've purchased, 2 were absolute shit.

I've noticed that Manning's MEAP process works to keep errors out and quality high.

Node In Action is probably the most beautiful JS example code I've ever seen in a book.

This. Don't get me wrong, O'Reilly do have some well written books but I find that Manning is only second to Springer in quality.
