Unfortunately, it fails to deliver in the "for SAP ABAP Developers" part. There are very few mentions of the ABAP language and no real comparisons. The Javascript concepts were simple to understand and complete with toy examples, but I guess this was the whole point of the Essentials. I would skip the book and use one of the millions of tutorials or sites like exercism to learn JS.
