Where is the best place to learn java scripting for unity

Java scripting wont help you at all for unity. Javascript on the other hand, will. Javascript and Java are two totally different languages. Unity actually doesn't even use Javascript, it uses a language similar to it called UnityScript, but thats a fine detail many people miss. Now, having said all that, if you want to build more then toy apps, you really want to learn C#. Its much more suitable for full application scale development then UnityScript.

4) UnityWiki

Books:

1) Game Development In Unity

2) Unity Development Example Beginners

You probably should have included a comment noting the distinction between "Java" and "Javascript". They're totally different and that is important.
