Explains it simple and fast, December 11, 2000

I've bought this book since I wanted to get acquinted with AE fast. I've gone through every review on Amazon and the local sites and finally went to the store to buy this one.
It appealed to me in the way it approaches the different concepts (not the easiest ones in AE) and explains them clearly, stating examples and using the 'sidebar' method for indepth information.
I have gotten through to page 140 now and I absolutely love it. I use it both as a manual (continuous reading) and for reference (looking up stuff), and it fits both uses.
I am planning to finish it before Xmas and the only thing standing in my way is my REAL job. One note of critic though - the CD is not packed with goodies (make up your mind if that is a good or a bad thing) and besides that, there are few useable thing on it.
But overall, the book alone is worth the - very low, I might add - price.

This book does an excellent job of explaining the core dynamics of adobe after effects and some advanced features. But if you are looking for a guide to building effects, this book is not for you.
