Query: Defending this book

I recently purchased this book before having read any on-line reviews. After getting through the first 47 pages I believe it to be a great book and don't understand all the negative criticism. I have only been around javascript about three months now and have been using two other books (one of which is a totally useless visual quickstart book that is only good if you wish to copy the code and not learn a darned thing!!!)and believe this book is easy to digest. Any javascipt book takes some time to absorb (however, still avoid the quickstart book!!!) Take it slow and read carefully and do the exercises. Good luck.
