Thanks Eric,
Ordered it today, Sadly no ebook version However lots of used copies
available on Amazon and B&N. Cheap enough new too.

Marty,
I think Buda is referring to Christophe Porteneuve's "Prototype and
script.aculo.us" while the ISBN you gave is for Andrew Dupont's
"Practical Prototype and script.aculo.us".
I read Christophe Porteneuve's one and it is a really good start for
prototype. The only drawback for me is that server code for examples
is in Ruby, but beside this little annoyance (only if you're not into
Ruby) it was a great and helpful book.
For Christophe's one:
ISBN-10 1-934356-01-8
ISBN-13 978-1-934356-01-2
IIRC, both authors are or where part of prototype core team, so any of
those books should do the thing.

I agree, I own the book and it is helpful. My only complaint is that
the examples are using ajax calling javascript but I suppose that is
universal so good for everyone. A nice ebook to have as well as paper
ISBN-13 (pbk): 978-1-59059-919-8
ISBN-10 (pbk): 1-59059-919-5
ISBN-13 (electronic): 978-1-4302-0502-9
apress has good stuff and their deals of the day can have some gems.

Since I bought it - it became my reference book, not only on
Prototype.js but on JavaScript.
I periodically reread it each time discovering new nuances. The more I
read it - the more I fall in love with Prototype.js.
What an elegant architectural solutions! What is non-trivial syntax!
JQuery, compared with Prototype.js - technical Library. Prototype.js
is - the art of programming!
Everyone must have this book. You will become better understood not
only the work of the library, and JavaScript in general.
