Even when this edition was the current edition it felt... flimsy and uninformative. It's 9/10ths design and 1/10th ActionScript dev. And not that you could cover much in that 1/10th but even that much felt weak. The pages are big and glossy and have a good layout. But it's the kind of book that a "graphic-designer-cum-web-designer" puts on his shelf to convince prospective clients that he knows what he's doing.
Designers get inspiration from all around then. And if you want information about Flash development itself, go with something by Colin Moock.

Now very dated, I'm sure, but I think it would be cool to see an HTML5/CSS/JavaScript revisting of some of these projects. This is one of the most technical and "how to" of Hillman's books, but it still has lots of useful design concepts and practices to digest.
