Flex 3 Bible

Flex 3 Bible

数日前にAmazonで予約注文しようとしたFlex&Springの書籍(洋書)が思いのほか評価が低い…という事が米国Amazonを見て判明し、値段も決して安くはないものだったので一旦購入を取り止め(キャンセル)。

当初検討していた書籍がこちら。FlexとSpring両方をカバーする書籍であり、先日購入した書籍『Beginning Java and Flex』の続編的位置付けされていたものです。

Pro Flex on Spring (Expert's Voice in Web Development)

Pro Flex on Spring (Expert's Voice in Web Development)

こちらが米国版Amazonでの評価。平均★3つは購入に踏み切るのは少し勇気が要りますね…。

タイトルの通り、Flex3に特化した書籍であるのでSpring関連のお勉強は他サイト・書籍でカバーするとして、こちらの書籍でFlexに関する知識・経験を高めて行きたいと思います。
