For those wanting to take their first steps in the world of Cocoa - ObjectiveC, I find it difficult to imagine a better introduction. The measured pace and set of very appropriate examples made it just right for me. The author's advice about necessary background is spot-on, and readers without it may be a little frustrated. There is not much material incorporated about OOP concepts, so I found that my experience with C++ and object-oriented concepts to be very useful in understanding the basics of how the Cocoa frameworks and the ObjectiveC syntax fit into the scheme of things. The edition I read contains numerous typos and minor errors but most of them are dealt with in the errata portion of the book website. Davidson has a friendly, enjoyable style and uses it well when the material allows it. Highly recommended! |
