Title: Good for the transition to Flash 5. Nicely written.
Review: I found this book a nice read while making the transition from Flash 4 to Flash 5. It's written in a clear conversational manner which I found comfortable. Gave me a good feel for the new Flash 5 actionscripting. It's true that it doesn't go into the XML stuff unfortunately, but I didn't really care while I was reading it. I was more interested in just learning how to do in 5 what I could already do in 4, and what else might be possible. I didn't look at the cdrom though - the tutorials seemed clear enough to me from the reading.
Is the review positive or negative?
