Book Reviews of Adobe Flex 3: Training from the Source
Book Review: This is the best book on the market
Summary: 5 Stars
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 and laid out. I have always enjoyed the series "Training from the Source" and this book delivers. This is easily the best Flex 3 book on the market today.
