Marijn Haverbeke: Eloquent JavaScript
If you are new to JavaScript, most of the books about it out there are do not fit for an vCO-guy because they contain too much web-related stuff.
An exceptional introduction to JavaScript NOT focussing on the web-stuff is "Eloquent JavaScript".

So you can directly test the code examples online in your browser while you read:
The fastest way to learn JavaScript from scratch!
