There's a new edition of the O'Reilly doorstop "Javascript: The Definitive Guide". I've learned a lot from it and started to use modules, promises and dropped all my horrible old 90s habits.
It reads really well, explains the modern bits as the right way of programming, but also puts the crusty, abandoned bits into the right perspective (if you're looking at old code I guess).
It's not at all a book for new programmers, but for someone who knows Ruby well, it's a great, concise read.
