Oh, come on. It's superficial because it's an *introduction*.
OK, maybe...but even compared to other *introductory* books, it's still on

That's nowhere near a reasonable explanation. Anyone who could type in the
examples and press the build button could have found most of the mistakes

*fix* them, but how much Cocoa do you really need to know to patch up bad
spelling and typos? (Hint: even I can do it!)
