There is a reason the App Store is exploding...books like this make development accessible to the average person. - ProfM

Great read! This book does a fantastic job of taking a person with no experience and a simple desire to develop mobile applications to a level in which they're confident and ready for more! - HD

Great for Developers too! I am a Microsoft .NET developer...with this book, I finally understand the relation between Xcode, Objective-C, and the Cocoa Touch Framework. If I don't get a concept, the video at the end of each chapter brings it all together. - Dneumanlv

  Learn to Program iPhone & iPad Apps!

This first book in the series from Kevin McNeish, award-winning App Developer, highly acclaimed iOS trainer and conference speaker, is specifically designed to teach absolute beginners how to create an App for the iPhone and iPad. Many books designed for the beginning Apple developer assume way too much. In contrast, this book series assumes you know nothing about programming.

There are seven step-by-step instructional videos in which you watch the author create each part of the App. This is great for non-programmers who might need some extra help.

Ultimately, readers will learn everything that is taught in the regular written-for-programmer iOS app development books. This series simply provides more background information and more thorough explanations for those who haven't had formal education or a career in software development.

If you have any questions while going through our iOS Development book series you can get answers on our free book forum! This is invaluable as you learn how to make apps of your own.

  Why iBooks are Superior to Kindle Books

iBooks provide a far superior reading experience because they include embedded HD-videos, high-definition images, and interactive diagrams—none of which Amazon allows in Kindle books.

In addition, Apple has a superior process for providing book updates. When we release an updated version of one of our books (we provide free updates on a regular basis), Apple alerts you by displaying an update badge in the iBooks app. You just tap the badge to download an updated version of the book.
