Average rating of 5/5 Great Book, 2005-12-27
This is a great book if your trying to learn actionscript rather than using Flash tweening. It helps with the basics and will be of interest to a wide range of people from those who want to learn basic animation to those wanting to write there own flash games. The book will gives you a good set of techniques that you will be able to use in your own Flash projects. Maybe not for the total flash beginner as some of the chapters cover trigonometry, rendering, collision dectection, kinematics, and 3D flash. Written for Flash MX2004 and Flash 8. A nice buy for those wanting to extend their flash animation knowledge.

Average rating of 5/5 Excellent, 2006-01-14
I really love this book. In the first 40 pages I've learned more actionscript than from two other books. Keith Peters concentrates on the important things, leaving away the useless clutter.
It is an interesting read, also if you don't specially want to program animations. By the way, don't miss the foreword from Aral Balkan.

Average rating of 5/5 Better late than never!, 2005-11-23
This is the book! This is the most complete book about acionscript I've never bought. Don't get me wrong, colin mook is amazing with his books, but they will always stay a reference book for pure actionscript syntax and concept behind what and why use certain language. But this book is the book that tell you how make ALL those cool animation that you really need and that we all see on the web. It tells you why certain things moves like this and the author is a superb teacher. Really, don't get this review as a WOW review, get it as a fact. Like things bouncing uh? and how about moving things super smooth? peeps this book is what we were waiting for so long. It's here finally. Better late than never! (a pure, simple, nice actionscript lesson about creating what we really would like to do).
