Want to make apps for the iPhone and iPod Touch but don’t know where to start? How about grabbing a book titled “Beginning iPhone Development”? Sounds like a nice place to being that journey, especially when you look at all the rave reviews it got so far.

From the book’s description on Amazon:

The book starts with the basics, walking you through the process of downloading and installing Apple (NSDQ: AAPL)’s free iPhone SDK, then stepping you though the creation of your first simple iPhone application. You’ll move on from there, mastering all the iPhone interface elements that you’ve come to know and love, such as buttons, switches, pickers, toolbars, sliders, etc.
You’ll master a variety of design patterns, from the simplest single view to complex hierarchical drill-downs. You’ll master the art of table-building and learn how to save your data using the iPhone file system. You’ll also learn how to save and retrieve your data using SQLite, iPhone’s built-in database management system.
You’ll learn how to draw using Quartz 2D and OpenGL ES. You’ll add MultiTouch Gestural Support (pinches and swipes) to your applications, and work with the Camera, Photo Library, and Accelerometer. You’ll master application preferences, learn how to localize your apps into other languages, and so much more.
Apple’s iPhone SDK, this book, and your imagination are all you’ll need to start building your very own best-selling iPhone applications.
