Macromedia Flash MX 2004 Demystified
by Shawn Pucknell, Brian Hogg, Craig Swann + others
Paperback: 888 pages; (December 23, 2003)
Macromedia Press; ISBN: 0735713979
I took a quick flip through and it looks good! Nice thick book, over 800 pages and it certainly covers a lot. I like the "Points to Remember" after each chapter. This is good for people like me who like to scan through information quickly. There's a whole chapter on video which is helpful. Part 4 - Extending Flash is of particular interest. It introduces Accessing External Data (XML, etc) and Advanced Communication (Flash Remoting, Flash Com Server). Part 5 gets into more advanced concepts like OOP, math, and manipulating 3D effects. This book even covers Developing for Pocket Devices. The writing style is clear and easy to understand. Included are icons along the side which point out tips, cautions, what's new in 2004, etc.
The companion site contains source files.
My first impression, this is a good book if you want to get up to speed with MX 2004 quickly. Congrats, nice job guys!
