This is a collection of books, tools, videos, and other resources for additional background on the topics covered in Refactoring JavaScript.
If any of the links go dead, try them on the Wayback Machine.
For sources without links, try searching the words given (with and without surrounding quotes), and you should be able to find them.
Most resources are free, but some are available only for purchase (or with clever searching). In the cases of nonfree resources, I have not provided a link and have included the author name for easier searching.
