Best book for the beginner's Balaji Loganathan D I was trying to learn Adobe AIR and was looking for some good set of learning resources. I found the book "Adobe AIR for Javascript Developers" from Oreilly by and started reading it online. A cool book, the authors have done great job on presenting the topics as an easilit readable pocket guide. Soon after reading this book, i felt i got the right resource i want for now. * I found this book a bit more than a usual pocket guide. * If you are a beginner and don't know anything about AIR, then this book is the best bet. . fAIR Guide Dan McKinnon 'Adobe Integrated Runtime (AIR) for JavaScript Developers Pocket Guide' is your typical pocket book with ~150 pages of content discussing AIR with a Javascript focus. Usually pocket guides are alright at being a quick reference for a technology. Something quick that enables the user to be able to get a small bit of information without having to open a books hundreds of pages long. In this case I feel that the pocket guide is not the way to go. AIR is a unique technology that requires a book full of color and content and. "Desktop JavaScript vs Browser AJAX" according to John Farrar. What makes a JavaScript desktop AIR application different from a Browser AJAX application? That is what this book is about. It doesn't waste all the pages in chatter or prolonged examples but has a nice mini-cookbook to show things off also.I would have liked just a tip or two on doing this in Aptana or Flex Builder, but to be fair it's a pocket guide not a larger 'everything you want to know'. It covers the core concepts of what I wanted to know and gives good references where to get more information on each topic. OH
