Since you are looking for a "god" javascript book, The JavaScript Bible immediately came to mind. But this book is really more of a reference book. It has lots of specifications but not as many examples for beginners.

So the author just released this one, Javascript Examples Bible : The Essential Companion to Javascript Bible. I don't this one yet but this author is very good.

Here is another one that is pretty good but it's a little old now, Javascript : The Definitive Guide (3rd Edition)

Maybe some other people can recommend some good ones too.

Yeah, I learned from that Definitive Guide one, and I'd definitely recommend it. It *is* a bit old, but if you really understand it when you read it, you'll have the skills you need to figure out the new DHTML stuff. I wonder if they're going to come out with another edition any time soon...

Do you know if the book "Matering javascript and jscript" written by James Jaworski is any good?

I'm not familiar with that one but here are some customer reviews:
