Title: Programmers: Don't waste your money
Review: If you are a programmer that doesn't know Director and wants to pick up Lingo, this isn't the book for you. The author doesn't use conventional terminology to refer to scalars, arrays, control structures, etc. The index is crap too. You can't use it to look up anything an ordinary programming reference would have. The only control structure in the index is IF/ELSE !Learning Lingo is outdated (covering only Director 4), and severely lacking in content and structure. I'm sorry I shelled out... for this one.
