Where can a person go to get a good understanding of how to utilize actionscript within Flash?

Keep in mind this question is coming from a person new to Flash, and a non-programmer upto this point. I realize there are several books and tutorials, however I am looking for something directed at person very new to Flash and unexposed to programming, and Actionscripting.
