Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This is the best book on the market
If you want to learn Flex 3, this is the best book I have read so far. This book will give you the basics so you can continue your learning through practice. I doubt there is a single book out there that will teach you everything there is about Flex 3 and ActionScript 3. This book will walk you through each exercise holding your hand in the process. The best part...there is a CD with all of the files included!

The best way to learn any language to is write code. You will do a lot of code writing with this book. The step-by-step approach is fantastic. While there are some errors, you can quickly figure out what it should be and fix it.

You will not learn all about ActionScript in this book. You do learn some, but you will need an book devoted to ActionScript 3 to get all you will need. This goes for all Flex 3 book written.

Overall, this book was extremely well written ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great book
Adobe Flex 3: Training from the Source is an update to the extremely popular Adobe Flex 2: Training from the Source. Authors of the book not only revised the earlier version of the book but also added a few chapters on features such modules, the Adobe Integrated Runtime (AIR), and the advanced DataGrid component.

If you are new to Flex 3, this book will guide you through the process of developing a complete application (an online grocery store) using Adobe Flex Builder 3. This book provides you with all the tools you need to get started. But be aware that to make the most of this book, you should at the very least understand basic web terminology. This book is written assuming that you are comfortable working with other programming languages such as Java, .Net, PHP or ColdFusion. This knowledge let you better understand many comparisons and analogies made to server-side web programming.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Your best starting point for everything about Flex 3
Adobe Flex 3 Training from the Source is a kick-start guide to learning the revolutionary "web 2.0" capabilities this present and ever-growing technology provides. Authors Jeff Tapper, Michael Labriola, and Matthew Boles establish clear, step-by-step tutorials and application development that are clear and easy to absorb no matter the scope or scale of coding.

What's best in the 26 lessons is the gradual build-up of skills--each lesson carefully stretching previous chapter's elements and taking them to a new level of programming and extension. This build-up and repetition of skills helps to solidify concepts, syntax, and best practices while never becoming redundant.

Whether readers come from an existing Flash/ActionScript background, an application designer needing additional coding skills, or as a total newcomer to OOP concepts and Rich Internet Application development, Training from the Source ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - it's the best bookI'v ever see.
