Summary: Same ol stuff
Comment: I bought this book because I liked the last version and this one was going to deal with Flash 5. It's a real pretty book and the CD is real nice, but the content is boring. It seems like every chapter dealt with creating horrible 3D effects with Flash's primative x,y,z axis commands in actionscript.

Only Gabriel's chapter really pulls off a neat 3D trick, everybody else is just making cheesy wire frame navigations.

I noticed another technique, which is covered twice in the book, is getting the date and time to display in flash, VERY exciting stuff here.

Granted, if you like this sort of stuff the book covers it really well. If you're looking for diverse techniques from a variety of artists, you are going to be disappointed. Skim it in a bookstore and just set it down...

Summary: very good for designers
Comment: this is not a actionscript book or a book that explains the features about the flash program. It's only a book that will give you an idea about how other designers (not masters that means a lot of years of experience) face their proyects and how they solve them. So it's very interesting if you want to know their process and some new tricks. I recommend it.

Summary: This book rules!
Comment: This is the coolest book I have ever seen, unlike any other book out there. Includes tutorials, background information, and more. If you love Flash, this book must be in your collection.
