Summary: Flash animation made easy
Comment: As an intermediate Flash programmer, and one who does not find it easy to learn solely by reading a book, I found this book extremely helpful and easy to understand. I am a 'hands on' person, and learn better thru exercises and simplified instruction, (i.e. "click THIS, then click THAT."). This book offers that type of instruction, yet the subject matter is deep enough to be helpful to any Flash animator. From simple animations to indepth interactivity, this book is excellent and well worth the price.

Summary: A competent book for learning
Comment: Has sufficent depth in important new areas; such as actionscript, components, video and jpg pixs. The actionscript section has four chapters and 240 ppgs, about one quarter of the book. There are two comprehensive projects at the end of the book where you can integrate all that you have learned, at a beginner and intermediate level (actionscript). The final chapter covers 70 pages.
The CD has QuickTime5 videos for visually describing subjects using Flash MX. These videos are large near full-screen sized and are competently produced. The videos cover the subject, but don't repeat what is in the text. The CD also contains a 30day eval version, along with QT5 Player, eval Sorenson Squeeze for videos, and Flash Shockwave 6 MX Player plug-in.
The subjects are illustrated well with diagrams and illustrations. There are 16 pgs of color plates at the back. This book provides a very good value; I read it at the local library. Minor errata is at the author's website and you can email him at derek at derekfranklin dot com. Three appendices are wisely on the CD; keyboard shortcuts, resources, and third-party SW.
Rating: 5
Summary: Good Book For Beginners
Comment: This book is a good book for those of you who are just starting out with Flash or Upgrading to Flash MX. It is a good starter and dives a little bit into ActionScript. Goes good with ActionScript by Derek Franklin.
