Jonathan,
perhaps a slight explanation is in order:

Objective-C for Cocoa ("*assumes previous knowledge of the C
Programming
language"). See, it's that last little asterix...
When it says this, it means more the general syntax layout and
procedural programming than C itself. I personally feel that Obj-C is
different enough to C programming to not really warrant that clause at
all. Maybe just "assumes previous knowledge of procedural programming"
Get a nice Cocoa book (I like Hillegass' one a *lot*), and use the C
book you have now to reference with if there is something unexplained.
I don't feel you need to learn C.
What you need to know is the C *programming language*, which is plain
enough. You do not, though, need to learn its *standard libraries*
(stuff like printf, scanf, strcpy, ...).
Incidentally, the tutorial from Cocoadevcentral recommended by Kevin
looks very good. Myself, I would take a shortcut here or there
(forget #include, use #import; forget printf, use NSLog...) and I
would rather not presume the reader knows PHP, but who knows: perhaps
you do :) Still, even if you don't do PHP, the thing is worth
reading. And quite probably might spare you the experience with your
C book :)
