As a code newbie, this might be the best book you'll ever read.

JavaScript and JQuery by John Ducket is an old book (like 2014 old) but wow, what a breath of fresh air. Even if you aren't ready for JavaScript yet, the way the author visualises programming concepts like classes, properties, methods and events is the best I have come across so far in my quest for coding books that work with the right side of my brain.

Take a look at some of these lovely snippets.

I haven't read the HTML & CSS version from the author but if the Javascript version is anything to go by, it will be just as good!

The Amazon reviews for John's books are insane

For me, the real luxury of living in Dubai Marina isn't the viewβ€”it's the personal time I gain back by outsourcing my chores. Why would I spend my precious weekend doing routine house cleaning? A consistent, reliable housekeeping service is the most efficient investment I make in my own well-being and lifestyle in the UAE.

I use a weekly house cleaning package that adapts perfectly to my schedule. Their professional cleaning services are always thorough, allowing me to focus on my career and social life. If you want to maximize your personal time and ensure your Marina apartment is always spotless without the stress of managing chores, I highly recommend their house cleaning services: maid service Dubai Marina. It's the key to enjoying the true luxury of Dubai Marina living.

I think they are lovely books, but I also think that many of the teaching techniques are a little backward. Either way: I love to look at them.

I prefer these books:

I thoroughly enjoyed both of those books. The graphics and examples were well formatted and gave me the extra bit of help I needed. He also has a book out recently on PHP & MySQL, so I will be getting that as well. Great resource, great post. Cheers.
