Great book for beginners

I bought this for my son, who is just beginning to learn about programming. He really loves it and said that it is easy to understand and very complete.

Learn How to Program Using Any Web Browser

I finally found a book that presents the basics of programming in a logical, easy to understand, let's skip all the nonsense approach. Harold Davis' book hits a home run. I couldn't put it down and strongly recommend it. Kudos Mr. Davis!

Programming using any Web Browser

I always glance at Programming books when in the computer section. When I saw Harold Davis' book what struck me was the title's ending "...using any Web Browser". Any book on programming must decide on SOME computer language. As a budding web-page designer/maintainer, this seemed like a good way to combine learning how (or better)to program AND to see how Javascript interfaces with HTML coding. I couldn't be more pleased. This book is easily readable and combines only needed information for tasks at hand.I have not yet completed the book, but already I can see that Mr. Davis has used solid programming techniques. This is the perfect book to learn programming techniques and to apply them to web page design.

This book delivers what it claims

If you have no programming experience then this book gets your started right away using simple tools right on your computer. Easy-to-follow examples, quick and easy to read. I'd highly recommend to anyone, especially those who are new to programming. Not condescending like the for dummies books. Each lesson builds on itself and author introduces new topics gradually and gracefully. All code available on publishers website so you don't have to type if you don't want to. EXCELLENT!

I recommend to anyone to learn to program!

Programming guru Harold Davis does it again! This is the book I would recommend it to any friend who wants to learn to program. Or just wants to understand computer codes.This book it is fun and friendly. But teach it does sound theory of computer programming. Best of all, you don't need anything new to use it, just any computer and any web browser.Cannot it recommend enough.
