"The arrival of the iPhone spawned an entire generation of copycat devices and shook an entire multibillion-dollar industry to its knees. Despite this, it still fits in your pocket," says author Alasdair Allan. "A lot has happened since then, including the release of the iPad and Apple's move towards the cloud. This book gives a rapid introduction to programming for the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. It strips away the complicated frameworks and gives you what you need to start writing applications for the iOS platform today."
