Recommendation for Action Script Text book?

Question

I am looking for a good reference to a text book on Action Script, both 2 and 3.
(hard copy text, it is easier than having stacks of windows opened and sort through to find what I need)
Some of the questions that a good text would answer are:
1: How do I know what base classes to import into any given .as file to cover the functionality?
2: How linkage works and what I can apply it to.
for instance if I want to add an event listener, can I do stage.addEventListener(....etc)
when the class is linked to a movieClip. If I use this.addEventListener, it attaches the
event listener to the object to which the class is linked, right?
3: The feature sets that each version of Flash Player supports, as well as browser
   Flash plugins.
4: How to handle permission problems when attempting to send data via post to a server
   (if have been following an example and get errors regarding permissions when attempting
    to have action script send data about the Flash plugin the client is using).
5: How javascript in a pdf file differs from browser javascript where embedded Flash content
  (in the pdf file) is concerned.
6: How to troubleshoot AS2 and AS3 linkage problems.
   (I have followed an exercise example in text I use, mentioned below, and have had the
result fail without errors. But I suspect there may be a difference between CS3 and CS4
that would account for this).
Initially, I have been generating at least 4 different versions of swf files for each version
of Flash Player back to v7. Javascript and server side code is used to determine which
version to load for the client requesting it.
Currently I am using the Adobe pdf manual and Lynda.com: 'ActionScript 3.0 for Adobe
Flash CS3 Professional Hands On Training', although I am using Flash CS4 Professional.
It is a starter text but not extensive into theory and practice.
I have done tons of Javascript and PHP programming (PHP on the server side).
It is better for me to have as much information and guidance in a text book than posting
to a forum for every problem I encounter.
Than you for advice and suggestions
