AppleScript: The Definitive Guide 2nd Edition

My love of AppleScript knows no bounds. I often tell people that they should be using AppleScript to help them automate everything from mass file renaming to making their beds (well, not so much that last one. Wouldn't that be cool though?). With that said, AppleScript fails the 'Mom test,' meaning my mother wouldn't have a clue how to use it, however, the same could be said for any scripting language.

Luckily for those who want to learn (including my mom, though I doubt she would be interested) O'Reilly has just released an completely revamped edition of 'AppleScript: The Definitive Guide' (though the dog on the cover is still the same). This edition covers Tiger and has lots of new examples that should help you navigate the shoals of AppleScript.
