Do you have any background in any language and any environment?

Try "JavaScript: The Definitive Guide". It's one of most comprehensive js books that will lead you through all of the language features

Being a professional programmer involve much more than know a language, just like learning English is much more than learning a dictionary.
Remember we don't know your background.

JavaScript: The Good Parts is mentioned a lot here. I actually found this to be much more useful when I already had experience with Javascript to better understand Crockford's stylistic decisions (why he considers the good parts better than the bad parts, etc.) It's when you understand the trade-offs involved in a language that you truly understand it at a deep level.

JavaScript: The Definitive Guide is your standard text-book style book. Very little personalization or fun to it - just 1000 or so pages packed with information about Javascript.

My personal recommendation is the You-Dont-Know-JS series by Kyle Simpson along with all of the associated video training that he does. And the best part? It's all open-sourced on Github so you can read it online and make contributions if you feel the need to do so. In addition to that, the first book in the series, "Up & Going" is available in ebook format for free here: You Don't Know JS

The reason for my recommendation is that the series covers each topic with great depth and relevant examples. For example, if you're not a beginner and already a javascript engineer today working with any popular framework, then it's definitely a good idea to understand scopes and closure (one of his books) and all about the "this" keyword and prototyping (another of his books). His book on ES6 (ES2015, whatever you call it) will soon be very relevant once browsers start adopting it.
