About this product

Learn Objective-C on the Mac is Apress's 2009 paperback introduction to Objective-C, the language behind Mac OS X and iPhone software, written by Mark Dalrymple and Scott Knaster and taught throughout with Apple's free Xcode tools.[1] The barcode is the softcover ISBN 978-1-4302-1815-9: one first edition, XXII plus 360 pages, copyright Apress 2009, sold beside an eBook edition under ISBN 978-1-4302-1816-6.[1] Apress is the New York technology publisher whose list Springer Nature now carries, and Springer distributed this printing to the trade worldwide.[3][4] Apress replaced the book in 2012 with a second edition subtitled For OS X and iOS, which added Waqar Malik as a third author.[5] The title was one of the barcodes people still looked for on the original 2006-2013 Barcodepedia, whose 2009 page recorded the same authors and publisher.[6]

Coverage & research gaps (7)

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.

  • Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
  • Book details: 6 / 6 · Profile fields recorded: authors, publisher, language, binding, pages, published. Missing fields may require research or an applicability note.
  • Context: 1 / 1 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
  • Label photographs: 0 / 1 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
  • identity · disputed: Publication year: Apress gives copyright 2009 and Open Library records 2009, while AbeBooks records 2008 for the same ISBN. A late-2008 release carrying a 2009 copyright would explain both, but no source read states the month.
  • identity · disputed: Page count: the publisher states XXII, 360 pages; the library MARC record behind the Open Library edition says xxi, 337 p. The publisher's figure is recorded here.
  • markets · unknown: Current availability is unconfirmed, so status is left unset: link.springer.com, which now carries Apress titles, answers a bot challenge and an SSO redirect, and no new-copy publisher or retailer listing could be read in 2026.
  • relationships · not_applicable: The barcode is an ISBN in the 978 Bookland range, which carries no GS1 company prefix, so no gs1_prefix_owner is recorded; the registrant element 1-4302 is Apress's own ISBN publisher prefix.
  • markets · unknown: Amazon storefronts other than amazon.com, and the UK and Australian booksellers found by search (lovereading.co.uk, boomerangbooks.com.au), refused the fetch, so no listing is cited for DE, FR, CA or AU.
  • images · unknown: No freely licensed picture of this cover was found: Open Library's cover scan and the retailer images carry no reuse licence, and the Internet Archive scan of the book is dark.
  • images · not_researched: No product photographs recorded.
