What is the Current State of Flex Books?
Someone was asking me, and I have to admit I'm a little out of the loop.
If you're somewhat comfortable with programming, I would go with the O'Reilly books. Programming Flex 3 is excellent (well, I read it when it was Programming Flex 2, but I assume it's basically the same). I really liked it because it does a good job explaining what the heck Flex is, and how it relates to Flash. Their ActionScript 3 Cookbook is also worth getting. And I see they have a Flex 3 Cookbook that looks promising...
Flex Solutions: Essential Techniques for Flex 2 and 3 Developers has tons of examples, but is a bit of a behemoth. So it depends whether you like that sort of thing. I also find the writing to be a bit sloppy.
On the beginner side of things, but Friends of Ed has a pretty good track record, so Foundation Flex for Designers might be a good one to try.
Are there any good Silverlight books out there yet? And what's the latest with AJAX? Let me know if you have any recommendations.
