If you want to connect Core Data to Your Tables... 20 April 2012
By DataArt - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This book is extremely coherent. Until I started reading Duckett's book, I have been doing my best to connect Core Data to my tables, but it hasn't been easy to figure out where the data goes, where the interactions go, etc.

Finally, I have CLEAR, ENJOYABLE explanations of all of the table issues with RELEVANT, perfectly-timed code examples that consistently work.

job well done 13 May 2012
By kh - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
It's a well-written book. Text is easy to follow. I really like the way steps are outlined prior to the solution. It has a good mix of theory and code. It has some nice diagrams to explain core concepts. Using xcode 4.3.2, I was able to follow along without any issues.
