"Gegliedert in 24 Abschnitte zeigen die Autoren Lösungen für die generelle Erstellung und Planung von Flashinhalten, das Verbinden von Grafik mit Interaktivität und das Einbinden von externen Daten. Besonders lobenswert ist das Kapitel Managing Movieclips, welches eindrucksvoll die Möglichkeiten von Movieclips illustriert." -- Bewertung: 9/10" -- VISUAL-X, Vol. 14/2006, Oktober 2006
