I picked up the book "Learning Cocoa with Objective-C" (Oreilly Book Copyright 2001) and it does not appear to track well with my version of Interface Builder (my version is 3.1.2). For example following the tutorial on pages 35 to 40 it states to open the main.nib file. My version of IB does not generate a nib file but generates an xib file outside the Resources folder when creating a NEW PROJECT as a COCOA APPLICATION. Well thats just the beginning of the tracking differences.

I believe:
Cocoa(R) Programming for Mac(R) OS X (3rd Edition)
Aaron Hillegass
• ISBN-10: 0321503619
• ISBN-13: 978-0321503619
is such a book and one you'll definitely want to go through very soon. It's very good.
While not on your topic specifically, since you are just starting out, I would also highly recommend:
Cocoa Design Patterns
Erik M. Buck
• ISBN-10: 0321535022
• ISBN-13: 978-0321535023
I largely consider this one to be a book that will tell you everything else you need to know about Cocoa.
