I am a programmer who has good knowledge of the concepts of orientation, and varying knowledge skills of several different languages, such as c#, vb, java, php and script languages etc.
Anyway I would just like to say, if you have some knowledge of programming, this an excellent book for kick starting you into the world of node.js It gets you to learn the basics and with a good foundation you can build upon this yourself. I'm eager to crack on and create my own web app. But i've decided to read the book all the way through first and then build when I read it a second time :)
Highly recommended for those with some programming knowledge but no knowledge of node.
