My order of preference for those books is the same as yours. During
the last couple of month, whenever I had searched for help, he most
expensive and biggest book, the one by Yackman, never yielded an
answer.
Raiyan, do not spend money on that book.
Another good source, I would add, are the cocoa tutorials on the
Oreilly Web site. I would place those tutorials after item 4 in
Brian's list.
