After you read the pages previously suggested from the JS Guide, you can find some examples on the Acrobat CD, as well as some tutorials on Acrobat JS in forms from the Adobe website.

But if you don't know JS <at all>, pick up "JavaScript, The Definitive Guide" by David Flanagan (O'Reilly). JS can do much more than is revealed in the tutorials; those deal principally with the use of JS in Acrobat forms and batch processes. You won't pick up on such features as array functions, key-value pair indexing, or variable typecasting (except by accident) from the tutorials. Flanagan's book will teach both server-side and client-side JS. You don't need to know this for Acrobat forms, but it's still nice to have the reference in case you have to use it someday. Flanagan teaches JavaScript as a whole language. Deubert has a good product, too, which will teach you about the use of JS with Acrobat.

I am after some examples of the sort of things that can be done in
Javascript/Acrobat. (Yes, I'm a dummy!)
I don't even know basic Javascript, so where would I be able to find some
literature?
