It really depends on the way you learn and what your programming goals
are ...
I think that Aaron Hillegass' "Cocoa Programming of Mac OS X" may be
the best introduction to Cocoa. Yet, it is perhaps excessively focused
on GUI programming, and thus describes via example how to get started
using Interface Builder with Cocoa's AppKit (which apparently is being
renamed by Apple to the "Application Framework"). Aaron and Mark
Dairymple have also just published "Core Mac OS X And Unix Programing,"
which is on my buy-list.
For more information and links to four reviews see:

About a week ago, I bought "Cocoa Programming" by Scott Anguish et al.,
as a more general reference. I think that many would regard this 1245
page work as the Cocoa "Bible." These are same folks who bring us
Stepwise.com and Scott is a frequent contributor to this list.

However, if you really must have your Cocoa "spoon-fed," then also
consider Bill Cheeseman's "Cocoa Recipes for Mac OS X - The Vermont
Recipes." Personally, I find the rather verbose style of "Cocoa
Recipes..." to be, at best, cumbersome. Mr Cheeseman has also
published "The AppleScript SourceBook," which appears to be written in
a similar vain.
