The ideal reader of ActionScript 3.0 Cookbook is an intermediate user who either has a good understanding of ActionScript 2 or who has some experience with ActionScript 3. This is not for the beginner who is looking for point and shoot examples on how to perform basic tasks and it should not bee seen as a viable replacement for Adobe's brain dead approach to educational resources.
If, however, you know your way around AS3, chances are that you will find this book to be quite valuable.

The topics covered are very limited compared to the basic needs and scope of actionscript and the coverage of each topic is too limited and redundant. O'Reilly books are usually very good, this one is a miss.

It *appears* that the authors know their material, and there's a lot of useful stuff covered.
Unfortunately the book is so full of errors that when encountering a confusing point, it's difficult to determine whether to believe what's written and try to figure it out, or simply write it off to another incorrect statement by the authors.
I find it hard to believe this thing was proofread. O'Reilly, you should be ashamed to put your name on such a poorly-edited publication! This is NOT up to your usual standards.
