I have just started with the following book ‘Mastering Dojo: JavaScript and Ajax Tools for Great Web Experiences‘ to understand the framework a bit more (I hope I have selected the right book to start with?).
For those who have already read the book which parts are the most interesting for you and why?
After an x number of years working in the same environment I have decided to look for a new challenge. Are you looking for a smart companion?

I have read the book “Dojo – The definitive Guide” from Oreilly in my iPhone – but I do not recommend the book.

Learning Dojo from Peter Svenson (Packt publishing) is my favourite, especially for getting started. We have also Frank Zametti, Practical Dojo Projects here. Its partially outdated yet (Grids!!!)
Svenson is straight to the point and uses a newer release. He doesn’t try to explain each and any property/method. Thats what google is for. I was/am in 3 projects that uses dojo and this book still is usefull.
The Pragmatic Programmer book is from july 2008. In that time the library still evolved quite heavily. For month even the web documentation wasn’t available (not so funny).
