Yes, that's a damned fine text. A good Director book hopefully will
cover a lot ofthe *concepts* of programming, as well as specifics for
Director itself -- this is useful because the concepts haven't really
changed.
And since Director is often the fist real taste of programming that
many people have, the conceptual framework is pretty important to
convey.
