Format: Paperback
This book is what it claims to be and that is a cookbook on advanced topics. I would follow the author's advice and if you are a beginner with Objective-C or iOS, this book is not the one you want to start with. This book is however an excellent book for experienced developers.

The first chapter kicks right into overdrive with a really nice overview of device specific development. It shows you how to get device capabilities and how to take advantage of that information in your applications. It continues on with 12 more excellent chapters which I have listed below.

1. Device-Specific Development
2. Documents and Data Sharing
3. Core Text
4. Geometry
5. Networking
6. Images
7. Cameras
8. Audio
9. Connecting to the Address Book
10. Location
11. GameKit
12. StoreKit
13. Push Notifications

One of my favorite chapters in the book was on the use of attributed strings and Core Text. That is probably because I needed to use the knowledge in that chapter in an application immediately. It was perfect timing and it does a great job of showing how iOS 6 has been updated.

I also used the chapter on Push Notifications immediately. I needed to understand how they work because we are using Airwatch which requires an Apple Push Notification Service Certificate. The chapter really helped clarify how they work, when to use them, and when not to use them.

This book picks up where the authors book The Core iOS 6 Developer's Cookbook left off with networking. The chapter on networking included in this book covers handling authentication challenges, using the system keychain, and working with OAuth.

Erica Sadun is an amazing author. I have followed her since the beginning of the iPhone and she produces some of the most amazing iphone apps/tweaks (jailbroken wise). This is a must have as she is a super star!!

The book is totally useful to the experienced iOS develoepr. I hate it when so many titles spend half the book telling you what you already know (how to use Xcode, how to publish your app.) This book doesn't waste time with that. It is real "meat." If you are looking for a book that tells you how to to the tricky stuff easily and quickly, this is one you need in your library.

I just went through this book specifically for the Imgur integration with oauth2. This book is still using oauth 1 which Imgur no longer supports. The horrible part is, this would be ok if I could just look over the code and follow through with the examples. The entire bits and pieces of code have been re written to where it doesn't even follow Apple's standard templates. Everything is custom written down to the main file. It's ridiculous and completely unnecessary not to mention hard to follow and unorganized. I'm never purchasing a book from this company again.
