Objective-C has always suffered from a lack of documentation, something that hasn't been helped by the fact that the language hasn't been standardised. Now that MacOSX has taken off in a big way, we're finally seeing some decent books on Objective-C, and this is definitely one of the best. While it's billed as a pocket reference, if you've got a good grounding in C then this little book also makes a great tutorial. I found that all the essential elements are covered, from the core OO features upto the NSObject and Object methods. I highly recommend it to anyone who's attracted by the OO concept but finds C++ too much of a mess.
