The JavaScript Anthology is good. It doesn't focus on the language details a whole lot, but gives tons of hands on examples. My copy is battered pretty bad with coffee spilled all over it. That's a good sign. Also, John Resig (of jQuery fame) wrote an excellent book called Pro JavaScript Techniques. I read it every year. It is a very detailed exploration of the language fundamentals and beyond.
