Armed with this knowledge, you can achieve true JavaScript mastery. Like other books in this series, You Don’t Know JS: Types & Grammar dives into trickier parts of the language that many JavaScript programmers simply avoid or assume don’t exist (like types). As part of the 'You Don’t Know JS' series, this compact guide explores JavaScript types in greater depth than previous treatments by looking at type coercion problems, demonstrating why types work, and showing you how to take advantage of these features. No matter how much experience you have with JavaScript, odds are you don’t fully understand the language.
