Product Description
Objective-C has become the standard programming language for application development under Mac OS X. It is a powerful yet simple object-oriented programming language that is based on the C programming language. Objective -C is widely available across many operating systems that support the gcc compiler, including Linux, Unix, and Windows systems. Programming in Objective-C provides the beginner programmer with a complete introduction to the Objective-C language. Unlike other books on Objective-C, it does not assume previous experience with either C or object-oriented programming languages. By using many complete examples and taking a step-by-step approach, the book teaches the reader how to write Objective-C programs on any system that supports the Objective-C language, as well as how to use the Foundation framework to develop portable programs that will run on any system supporting Objective-C.

 Beautifully written. Great for starting iPhone Development too!!! December 28, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book is excellent. If you are new to Apple's development tools, and interested in learning iPhone programming, even if you don't have any previous programming experience. This is a great book to start with. I had my 12 year old read the first 100 pages of this book for a basic programming primer in Objective C and then switch over to reading Dave Mark's equally excellent Beginning iPhone Development - Exploring the iPhone SDK, and by the end of the weekend he had written his first basic iPhone app.
Good introduction to Objective C December 10, 2008
Overall this is a good introduction to Objective-C. Programmers proficient in C will find some sections rather basic but the authors do say in the preface that no programming experience is assumed. The text is also a good book to read before reading Apple's text.
 Wait for the obj-c 2.0 version of this book November 19, 2008

This book just seems to be a bit out of date which is why I didn't give it the full 4 stars. Wait for the next version.
Excellent for learning Objective C for Mac programmming November 14, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is an excellent introductory book on Objective C programming language as used for the Apple Macintosh and Apple iPhone. It is very clearly written, with good examples, and good exercises that help reinforce the concepts that need to be learned. I used this book to become proficient in Objective C in less than 3 weeks.(Note I have previous experience with C language and the Macintosh programming language so your learning rate may vary) I highly recommend this to those seeking to learn or review Objective C.
 Outdated - Don't buy October 29, 2008

Don't waste your money on this book like I did. It too out of date to be of any use. Mac Xcode has changed too much since this was published.
