Summary: Waste of time
Comment: I have literally spent days on some of the lessons in this book. The writing is awkward, editing inconsistent and I found myself repeating the lessons over and over with the same bad results. Someone called that insanity. Other books in the series have been much better.
Since it was assigned as the textbook in a class, and this is the first quarter that my school is using the CS3 platform, I really feel like the guinea pig. I fear I will complete the class with no more information than when I started because of this book.

Summary: Adobe scores BIG!
Comment: As a video editor, I didn't know much about Flash CS3. When I had to build a Flash video web banner for work, Adobe's Flash CS3 classroom in a book helped in a BIG way. It gave me all the lessons and info I needed to complete the project; and prepare for upcoming projects. Afterwards, I bought Dreamweaver CS3 and Illustrator from the same training series, Thanks Adobe!

Summary: Frustrating and incomplete
Comment: I bought this Classroom in a Book based on previous great experience with this series. I should have read the reviews first. This book appears to be hastily thrown together with incomplete steps that create confusion as to why something is not working. I am not new to flash and was only able to figure some things out based on a basic existing knowledge. If you value your time, leave this one alone.

Summary: Not made for beginners
Comment: I have finished the first eight lessons out of ten. The project I created in each lesson is exactly like the one they show you before you start, which means that I did them right.
The problem then? I didn't learn anything!
This is the most useless Classroom in a Book program I've used. There is no explanation for why you are supposed to do something. And, they have done so much of the work before you start the lesson that you couldn't possibly create something on your own.
I bought this book hoping I would learn how to create some simple basic flash animations but I can't. So, now I have to look for another book. I wouldn't recommend this book.
