Beginning iPhone SDK Programming with Objective-C (Wrox Programmer to Programmer)

Beginning iPhone SDK Programming with Objective-C (Wrox Programmer to Programmer) Review

I read a few iPhone SDK programming books and never get to learn much because they were hard to understand for a newbie like me. To make matter worst, I am not able to develop real world applications without resorting to read and learn the video samples from Apple and other SDK sites.

I am glad that I found this book simply because it is very easy to follow. I didn't struggle as much compared to reading other iPhone dev books. The walkthrough exercises were great! The author go straight to the point and I don't have to read tons of unnecessary info before starting on the exercises. The walkthrough exercises help me to understand the concept and most importantly, I am able to develop different kinds of practical iPhone applications upon completion of each chapter. This book also covers a wide range of different topics ranging from MultiTouch, database access, debugging and simple animations.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to jump right into the iPhone programming bandwagon but don't have a clue about Objective C or the iPhone SDK.
Thumbs up !!!

Out of date, and no support! - Arnold Miller - Tucson, AZ
This book, despite its late publication date, is out of date!
It's written for 3.0 instead of 3.2.x.
I down loaded there source code for the first chapter. It consisted of a completely empty project.
No added code, events or actions.

I wish I could return it, but I ordered the Kindle version.

makes sense - Y. Dolinsky - San Francisco, CA United States
If you are a developer and want to learn iPhone SDK, this is a book for you. Instead of teaching you how to use all kinds of tables and other UI Classes exclusively in InterfaceBuilder this book does a great job of explaining how it actually works if you just use code to create your classes. I also liked how the chapters are grouped to walk you through SDK. And App. D about Objective-C is pretty good too.
This book has one problem, which every printed material is prone to have- a few screen shots are out of date, but nothing you can't figure by google the information.
