An OK book for an experienced programmer to use.
Covers "design patterns". Explains some of the basics, as design patterns. Useful that way.
Consulted this book (after getting some experience) for the right way to do a "model" object, initialization, etc.

A decent book for a handful of high-level patterns, but the first 1/2 of the book seems rather useless to my eyes.
This book bills itself as a Cocoa-equivalent to the origin "Design Patterns" book. While you can read it that way, I found it most rewarding when looking for answers as to why things are the way they are in Cocoa. This was closer to what I was hoping for—less of a classic patterns book, more of a guide to Cocoa idioms and the rationale behind them.
