Both of these books are introductory texts. What do you want to learn? You
already have two introductory books and a very comprehensive reference guide
(I am guessing that you meant "Learning Cocoa with Objective C," Hillegass,
and "Cocoa Programming" by Anguish, Buck and Yacktman). Unless there's a
topic that Vermont Recipes or "Building" covers that you are particularly
interested in, I don't think you should spend your money on either.

I have both "Building" and Hillegass and I got a lot more out of the latter.
I got pretty close to nothing out of "Building," actually, because I had
read Hillegass first.

You can test drive Vermont Recipes on the Stepwise site.
