I was looking for ActionScript books here in the Philippines and this book caught my attention when I held it in my hand.

I asked the National Bookstore lady to open the package and lo and behold! The pages are packed with full colored images.

I love reading books if they have a lot of images. This makes you more interested on finishing the book from start to finish.

I am planning to take up Flash courses and I will bring this book whenever I go. =)

One thing that was lacking was a large list of ActionScript tags. What the heck...the tutorial is more pleasing to read though.

This book is a must have for any designers library. I have wasted a lot of money buying books that were shere geek-speak. It is easy to understand. I am not a linier thinker and Flash tends to be a lineir program....I have stayed away from Flash because I have had a hard time grasping it. Scott Hamlin and Jennifer Hall have given me a tool, I can finally use to better understand Flash and Flash's actionscripting. Thank you both for the time and effort you put in to write this book. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a good, easy to understand, user freindly Flash actionscripting book. Scott Hamlin's website is also a must join site for anyone looking for great tutorials on Flash files, Web Site layouts, and Photoshop files. ...

Being new to IT in general and graphics programs in particular, I was pleasantly surprised to find this book extremely easy to comprehend in addition to covering the necessary subject matter in depth. Definitely a 5 star book.
