Hi i have started to learn flex from the tutorial video's provided in the Adobe site itself, but i don't have internet access at my home. I know that there are a lot of book's on Flex ,so can any one refer some good book on Adobe Flex for beginner's.

It depends a lot on the kind of application you're writing. In general, though:

MXML Heavy: Programming Flex 3 is a good starting point and covers most of the basics.

AS3 Heavy: Essential ActionScript 3 covers the entire actionscript language but doesn't focus on flex specifically, so you probably only want to bother with this if you're comfortable poking around in the API documentation for flex yourself (you'll probably end up doing this anyway since the flex books can't cover everything).

Flex 3 Bible (2008, English, 25Mb) by John Wiley & Sons.

I second the vote on the Flex 3 Cookbook.

If you do get internet access, go and download Adobe's Tour de Flex. It is an app that serves as a cookbook. Very helpful.
