Title: $$$ for this? I don't think so.
Product review: I understand tutorials for recent software releases may have their fair share of typos, but the editors at Peachpit were asleep at the wheel on this one. Not only is this book filled with typos, I found this to be more of a brain dump than a professional, organized tutorial. We are asked to read pages and pages of the most mundane concepts and wordy explanations, and then are left out in the cold when it gets down and dirty -- key steps and definitions are just missed entirely. The first animation lessons are totally inconsistent and vague, and then the author goes so far to say "by now you're an expert!" Right. I am very disappointed in my first Macromedia-sanctioned tutorial, I expected better. Their products aren't very intuitive, I don't know why their tutorial publications would be.
