This review is from: Naked Macromedia Flash MX 2004 (Design With) (Paperback)

The format of this book is similar to the other two titles in the Naked series, (Fireworks, and Dreamweaver). There are a lot of Flash books out there, but this one is way above the rest. This method of learning works well for me, but means you have to do the "projects". The book has excellent diagrams and pictures, which is important when trying to learn Flash, since you need to go all over the workspace to make a movie.......I had written more here, but the Amazon system erased it.
