Aaron Hillegass has been teaching programming for many years at his Big Nerd Ranch. In Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X, he approaches the topic with clear examples and an excellent presentation honed from these classes. This book is revered by many longtime Mac developers and, despite its title, is relevant for iPhone developers looking for a deeper understanding of the classes and design patterns shared by both platforms.

Cocoa and Objective-C: Up and Running, by Scott Stevenson, takes an in-depth look at both Cocoa and Objective-C. Scott has a long history of providing online tutorials at his Cocoa Dev Central (http://cocoadevcentral.com/) and Theocacao (http://theocacao.com/) sites. His direct and personal style is easy to read and highly recommended for developers who want to get the most out of the language and framework.

Both Erik Buck and Don Yacktman are longtime Cocoa developers. In Cocoa Design Patterns, they examine the object-oriented design patterns used in the frameworks of the iPhone SDK. Through practical examples and sample code, advanced developers will discover the underlying elegance and consistency of the components used to make their iPhone apps.
