I'd have to agree with you on that. I own all three Cocoa books (the two O'Reilly books, and Hillegass's book), and have found that "Building Cocoa Applications" is the best books so far for covering a broad range of topics. Not to say that Aaron's book isn't as good, it just doesn't seem as comprehensive. I wouldn't hesitate recommending either book to anybody looking to learn or expand their knowledge in Cocoa.

Incidentally, any news at O'Reilly?
The Garfinkel & Mahoney book is out, and it is *great*. Lots of
examples and lucid explanations, signatures for the major methods,
copiously illustrated, well organized, just a delight. My only
complaint is that there's nothing on networking, but the book is 600
pages, so that may explain it. Maybe that can be part of an on-line
addendum. Anyone who's learning Cocoa on their own needs to work
through this book, and it would also be an excellent foundation for a
course.
I *don't* work for O'Reilly, I just happen to be a satisfied reader.
