There is nothing in JS which couldn't equally be done in Perl with anonymous subs and coderefs. Isn't Perl5 older? And does not C have function-pointers and is it not even older then Perl? Who cares? For me to call JavaScript a "lambda language" is just as ridiculous as calling Perl a "lambda language". Apart from that Douglas Crockford's book is good though...
