great book if you know some flash

if you are a flash developer/designer who is comfortable with the basics of flash and actionscript, this book is awesome. confusing topics like listeners and the delegate class are covered well. i really liked this book and recommend it - i've recently recommended it to my brother because i think he understands arrays and for loops and xml, etc but would like to get a better handle on it, he's going to like this book as well. fyi i also had Jobe Makar's game book(green cover) and liked that as well.

This book really works !

Well, I don't have any intention to convince you to buy this book, but if you are not a lazy person, and need to learn something solid from the root, that's the book for you. I already tried some books which orient us to buit a whole website as a project. But when we try to built our sites, using our ideas, they don't work, just because we have to do something different than theirs, escaping one line out from their recipes that they gave us, and most of these books don't cover everything that we need. Stop with that. Learn actionscript as a challange, not as a cake recipe.
