I recently picked up this desperately needed niche book. I bought Plasma specifically because I wanted to create 3d for Flash MX and Director MX. Plasma is practically built for both of them, however, plasma's documentaion is weak and lacks intuitive examples for use with Flash MX. This book is EXACTLY what is needed in the marketplace on this subject right now.I commend John Wiley & Sons for publishing this niche product and using an author who is obviously a veteran of the products. Matthew uses extensive case studies and examples detailing how to integrate 3d content in Flash MX. Swift 3d is covered as well (which I don't own so I skipped the chapter), but half the book covers Plasma to Flash MX integration. There is even a chapter dedicated to integrating Plasma 3d content and Director MX. Basically, this book should be packaged with Discreet's Plasma for anyone interested in integrating 3d content with Flash MX and Director MX.
