Invaluable for those learning Xcode + Swift
This is an excellent book. I've purchased many technical books over the years and I like the style of this one. It's the right amount of explanation followed by clear examples that you can easily adapt into your own projects. You end up understanding Apple's frameworks and Swift syntax at the same time and can advance your personal projects very quickly. I came from an Actionscript and Javascript background and found Swift itself very easy to learn -- but it's the combination of learning to use the frameworks WITH Swift where this book is so helpful. But perhaps more so for people with at least some development experience. And there is a ton of great content in here. I highly recommend this book!

Delivers On Everything (but 3D graphics).
I was writing an extremely disappointed review for "iOS Swift Game Development Cookbook: Simple Solutions for Game Development Problems", and in that review I mentioned that in most areas this book is far superior, so I thought that I'd better jump over here and give this book 5-stars.The book doesn't cover 3D in any usable detail for game development, but in every other area it is great!

Helpful in jumpstarting projects in Swift. Each solution explains concepts enough to provide a basis to experiment further.

Good examples through it
Need to go through it a little more, but definitely not for beginners. Good examples through it. Happy with the purchase and have recommended to others.

Just dont
As an old time programmer with OO knowledge went for this book as it was from a trusted publisher.At first reading and trying out the code examples it looks ok, yeah sure some of the examples don't work and you have to debug them.But I was still left wanting to understand more.Then I started on the Stanford University CS 193P iPhone Application Development course on iTunes U. - Which is where everyone with OO knowledge that want to understand more IOS development, SWIFT and XCode should start. Paul the lecture is amazing and the course well structured and presented.All of the course is inside IOS MVC pattern. - Then it hit me what was wrong with this book.The examples all break the IOS MVC pattern. While the code is valid and will run, the examples will not actually help you in your work or rally help you understand how to take the cookbook example to real code.
