"Schon der Untertitel 'From Xcode to App Store' verweist darauf, dass es in diesem Band um Apple-spezifische Programmierung geht. Objective-C-Grundwissen vermittelt der Autor, bevor er ins Detail geht und beispielsweise Design Patterns fürs iPhone erläutert. Wie man XML oder JSON einliest, seine Anwendungen schließlich fertigstellt und beim App Store einreicht, beschreiben weitere Kapitel." -- iX, 12/2010
