7. At 750 pages, it's neither too light nor too heavy. The perfect
compromise, if you can't choose between the Anguish-Buck-Yacktmann book and
any of the others. :-) Seriously, my completely unbiased view is that any
aspiring Cocoa developer needs (1) at least one of the existing shorter
books (although I find all of them helpful), (2) my book, and (3) the
Anguish-Buck-Yacktmann book. No choices to make -- just buy all of them.

I'm biased to 300 pages.. I was bummed that my book came in at 350. :)

But, I totally agree that any aspiring Cocoa developer should read as many of them as possible. Compared to the time you'll spend, and equipment you'll buy in this endeavor, the price is cheap and the only way to really get your head around all of these concepts is to see them from different angles. All of the authors out there will give you a different view into the problem, and by the time you've seen a few of them, you'll get it.
