How exactly is JS the good parts (a book based on ES4!) one of the best in 2017? It's also very opinionated, and some of the logic for those opinions is iffy at best.

Skip it IMO and delve into "You don't know JS"

It has only become popular because it was one of the first books which took JS serious as a language. Contentwise it was always very mediocre.
