Customer Reviews

For those confused

For those that have written bad reviews on this book... I think your worries are far over exagerated. The organization isn't a problem because there's a majical thing called "a table of content"... usually that's placed: "At the begining of a book"... smart... very smart... Next, the way this author explains things is quite simple to understand. You'd have to be 50 years old and never have touched a computer in your life in order to be frustrated with this. I recomend it

Wonderful Book!

This book is extremely well written and organized with precision. The few questions that I had while reading this book were due to my simple oversights. The author, Bonnie Blake, is an excellent author who uses precise examples and leaves nothing unexplained. Bravo Ms. Blake!!

Helped Me Learn Flash

I found this book to be totally comprehensive and very helpful in teaching me the basics of Flash. It also covers a lot of scripting material. It is organized in such a way that it makes it easy to go back and refer to various topics I needed a refresher on. All in all, it was well worth the money. The online files were a bit difficult to find at first, but they downloaded easily. Great tutorial exercises. Easy to understand.

Shining Star in cloudy night sky

Ms. Blake's book is outstandingly well written. She brings complicated aspects of Flash down to their most simplistic levels making all techniques easy to understand and use. Her writing is crisp, upbeat and creates a desire to learn and work with the software. She also brings a refreshing angle to many of her suggestions as to how to work with various techniques.I'm a strong reader and user of technical software books and am familiar with many, many that are out there and many, many are just plain terrible! This book shines on in the cloudy night of the myriad of books that have been written...especially about Flash!Ms. Blake: keep up the grand work!

Thorough and comprehensive

I happened upon this review section after I bought the book as I'm now looking for a book on ActionScript. Had I read the reviews first, I may not have bought the book . I have to say, in my opinion (and I have many years experience in multimedia and web design), this book was very comprehensive, easy to read, fun, the download files were great. I was able to work through it quickly and now I am up and running. Easy style writing, upbeat, and yes, there was a typo here and there, but not enough to warrant complaints. Plus it was a good price for wht you get. I recommend this book whole heartedly.
