Is this book for you? To find out, perform these two steps.

Step 1. Scan the Table of Contents, reading the title of each skills exercise. Each skills exercise focuses on a specific skill, and if the exercises look interesting to you, then this book is for you.

Step 2. Read through the first several Exercises, and see if the clear, step-by-step instructions make sense to you. If so, then this book is for you.

If you have access to a Mac OS X system, along with Xcode 4.5, then you can read each skills exercise, and perform each step.

However, even if you do not have a Mac OS X system with Xcode 4.5, you can still read and follow along "in your mind". When you do have access to a Mac, you'll know exactly what to do.
