The one book to get your feet wet would be Aaron Hillegass's very popular Cocoa Programming for MacOS X (3rd edition) book. It's really good.

I would argue that Hillegass' book is *****not***** for beginners. But the thread above should help you.

I agree. You should start with Kochan. Hillegass is an excellent book, but won't make sense to you unless you have a solid understanding of Objective-C. As mdeh says, do a search and you'll find plenty of info about getting started.
