> A language that doesn’t affect the way you think about programming is not worth knowing.
There are many different motivations behind studying a language. You can study it for a job interview, for a job requirement, or for personal enlightment.
I had my enjoyment of reading some well written JavaScript books such as the "Rhino book" (https://www.amazon.com/JavaScript-Definitive-Guide-Activate-...) and Pro JavaScript Techniques by John Resig (https://www.amazon.com/Pro-JavaScript-Techniques-John-Paxton...). They really help you think in JavaScript just like K&R helps you think in C.
