I'm porting a C++ app to iPad/Mac and dislike having top copy-paste bits of OBJ-C from the web to glue it together. So I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations on a good book to teach OBJ-C & Mac/iOS dev to an experienced developer (I know C++, Java and C#) who has spent 99% of their time on Windows platform?

Programming in Objective-C is good.
I'd also recommend Cocoa Design Patterns for getting a proper understanding of the way things are done: it makes life much easier if you go with the grain of the OS, and having always been fully OO (via its roots in NextStep) Cocoa has a lot of really good patterns underlying it. If nothing else, make sure you have a good grasp of the delegate-datasource-notifications way of doing things, as it appears everywhere and you'll find life is beautiful if you use it too.Comment
