The title isn't bad, just wildly outdated. The methods in the text are easy to understand especially for beginners, but the information gained from the text is over 4 years old. Both Flash and ActionScript have come a long way recently to the point where the information in this book might be of little use to even a moderately interested hobiest. Learning this book is like learning Basic to understand Java or C++, it won't work for anything other than a general familiarization. Pass on this one and go get the Flash 8 ActionScript Bible, it'll be much more useful to you.
