Addison-Wesley, 1988. ISBN 0-201-17632-7 All other books are only mangled portions of this (or Goodman's) explanation of Hypertalk commands together with other possibly useful content. But this book contains what you need to know about Hypertalk itself. Three hundred sixteen pages of hypertalk without the hype. jking
