CoffeeScript in Action is a tutorial that teaches you how, where, and why to use CoffeeScript. It begins by quickly exposing you to CoffeeScript’s new, but instantly-familiar syntax. Then, you’ll explore programming challenges that illustrate CoffeeScript’s unique advantages. Language junkies will especially appreciate how this book takes idioms from other programming languages and shows you how CoffeeScript makes them available in JavaScript.


JavaScript runs (almost) everywhere but it can be quirky and awkward. Its cousin CoffeeScript is easier to comprehend and compose. An expressive language, not unlike Ruby or Python, it compiles into standard JavaScript without modification and is a great choice for complex web applications. It runs in any JavaScript-enabled environment and is easy to use with Node.js and Rails.
CoffeeScript in Action teaches you how, where, and why to use CoffeeScript.

For language junkies, the book explains how CoffeeScript brings idioms from other languages into JavaScript.

Readers need a basic grasp of web development and how JavaScript works. No prior exposure to CoffeeScript is required.

2010 | ISBN: 140518535X | English | 256 pages | PDF | 1.7 MB

Combining an exciting methodology alongside high-interest case studies, Television in Transition offers students of television a guide to a medium that has weathered the challenges of first-run syndication, a multi-channel universe, netlets, major media conglomerates, deregulation, and globalization–all in the space of twenty years.

Examines a return in television programming to action narratives with individual (super) heroes intended to navigate this new, international, multi-channel universe

Explores how television programming “translates” to new spatial geographies: different nations, cultures, broadcast systems; and different formats, distribution outlets, and screen sizes

Looks at the value of a program’s “afterlife,” the continued circulation, repackaging and repurposing of programming beyond its initial iteration

Blends institutional and textual analyses in case studies of Highlander: The Series, Smallville, 24, and Doctor Who
