Internet Applications (RIA) platform for doing rich, dynamic, media front ends for the desktops and mobile devices. Its comparables include Silverlight, the .NET-based RIA platform for Windows, and of course the mature Adobe Flash Platform.

Lucas Jordan’s JavaFX Special Effects is the first pragmatic, effects-driven book on the cool, Java RIA effects developers can do with the new JavaFX platform to debut late in 2009.

This book is also the first that lets developers have fun by creating effects cool enough for animation, game applications and other multimedia. It surely will be the kind of book a retailer should stock for the impulse buyer, especially around the Holidays!
