Summary: Hit the Button for Me!
Comment: Since this book stated it was beginner through intermediate it did provide that for me. There was enough information for me to get a good feel on each subject. On the subjects a bit over my head and the ones I wanted more beginner detail on, I purchased a beginner book specific to that topic. The intermediate topics simply spurred my interest to explor further.
Not only are there a lot of examples but a website was added to with every single application. As far as Flash, there was extra material which was project based on the CD ROM. If Flash were my interest I'd have purchased the Flash Bible.
The book states that it's focus is on integrating the Studio applications together, and in that end, it did an admirable job. It's unrealistic to expect one book to teach everything there is to know about 5 applications--hence the name INTEGRATING Studio MX Bible :-)
I also understand that the Bible is a reference book not a step by step book. I purchase a lot of computer books and have found there are specific types. For people who want a total hand holding experience I'd suggest a tutorial book not a reference book.
For my money, this book more than earned it's $40 I paid!

Summary: I flunked my Webpage Design class because of THIS BOOK.
Comment: I absoutely hate this book. I had to buy it for a webpage design class and I can't understand why the teacher uses this for a textbook. I've never seen an application (computer program) how-to book that left me this confused--and these kind of books don't easily leave me confused as I have learned HTML. Photoshop, and PHP from books (I have several books on each!). As was stated below, this book doesn't give you enough information to understand what the heck you're doing. If you've had no previous experience with Macromedia Studio programs I can almost GARENTEE that you won't make it even halfway through this book (if that) before you're ready to chuck it out the window. It is virtually impossible to understand the instructions and explanations given in the book if you aren't already very familiar with some prior Macromedia Studio program(s) because the language is out of the beginners grasp. It's because of this book that I had to drop out of my Multimedia & Webpage Design class. Thank you Macromedia Studio MX Bible! Do yourself a favor: Don't get this book. Don't waste good money.

Summary: UGH!! What a waste of time and money!
Comment: I had to buy this book as a text book for a college level class I am taking on Macromedia Studio MX. The book is just about worthless. Instead of trying to work through the tutorials, which all seem to have needed information left out, I ahve been spending my time for free on the Macromedia website doing their tutorials.
Also the books seems to be geared more for the person who is upgrading from a prior version of Studio than to a new user.
If I didn't have to use this book as a text book it would ahve gone STRAIGHT BACK to the college bookstore where I bought it.
