Hi, There are two documents from Google Code (V8 JavaScript Engine, Design Elements[1], V8 JavaScript Engine, Embedder's Guide[2]) that illustrates the main design concepts and V8 API from a very top-level. But it's reasonable for a quick start. On the other hand, if you want to get involved more about VM/compiler design principles, Why Is the New Google V8 Engine So Fast?[3] is a must-read to employ information about key components and general philosophy behind V8.
