Prototype and script.aculo.us: You Never Knew JavaScript Could Do This! (Pragmatic Programmers)

Christophe Porteneuve

Published by: Pragmatic Bookshelf on December 2007

A very detailed descrition of these 2 javascript add-ons. I found this very hard going although you can just download and install these two libraries and start using straight away through the section on script.aculo.us.

Look at this book at Amazon
