★★☆☆☆
</div>
<p>ECMAScript 6 is the new JavaScript, and I'm just saying this in case you're
wondering why one would read this book.</p>
<p>There are a few niceties in JavaScript 6 that would make lives easier. I read
the book looking for those niceties. And it does its job. Poorly.</p>
<p>Thing is, the first examples are good (not great, good), and then it seems
there are some components the author didn't really quite grasped -- like
proxies -- and threw examples of things without them. In the case of proxies,
the author created proxies that replicate the normal behaviour of objects and
after reading it, you'll keep wondering <em>why</em> you should use them, as they do
nothing different from the default.</p>
<p>Also, broken English. I'll be the first saying that I'm not the most
impressive writer in the English language, but hell, some sentences really
hurt. &quot;we will be comparing&quot; is one of those cases. And you'll find plenty of
them. Plenty of &quot;that is&quot;, plenty &quot;therefore&quot; and things like that just make
the text tiring to read -- and it's not even a long read, just about 200
pages.</p>
<p>It's a book that may give you some insights about what's new in JavaScript,
but falls short delivering its message.</p>
