"A useful companion for current Flash MX 2004 users, and particularly worthwhile for those thinking of working with the software and seeking to understand its features." - Game Developers' Association of Australia

"I have found this book by Birgitta Hosea to be an essential reference guide to keep by my computer! As I am currently teaching myself Flash MX 2004, I have found myself constantly leafing through the pages of this book for advice. The many illustrations found amongst the pages and step by step guides have made learning Flash very clear and easy. I would recommend this book to anybody, be they a beginner or an expert! This book works on two levels; as a step by step learning process for beginners or an excellent reference guide for experts. Highly recommended! If you work with Flash, you need this book!" - online reviewer, amazon.co.uk

"...it is very easy to read. It is not buried in jargon, but instead uses real examples in a step by step tutorial like setting, where you play with the program and get comfortable with the environment.
I seriously loved this book...Go to a local book store and thumb through it yourself." - online reviewer, amazon.com
