In the programming holy wars, it is written that scripts are for people who
can't handle programs.  However pejoratively it may be said, it is quite
literally true, so the level of this book should come as no surprise.  Aitken
does not assume any familiarity with programming, but provides everything the
reader will need to start writing scripts.
 
Much more space (about three times as much) is given to JavaScript than to
VBScript.  Aitken does seem to assume that anyone who wants to use VBScript
will already be familiar with Visual Basic itself, or VBA (Visual Basic for
Applications).  He's probably correct.
