Evening All,
   
   I am currently reading Cocoa Programming by Scott Anguish, Erik M.
Buck, and Donald A. Yacktman(the big purple book from SAMS).  It has
been excellent so far, but I am looking for another book when I am
finished with this one.

One being graphics oriented, something that can clearly explain and
exemplify drawing within an application, such as animations and
stresses efficient design.

Another book I have always wanted to read but have never found is a
book on modern object oriented design.  I have read a few but I am
really looking for a book that I can use to better understand object
oriented programming and help make my designs more elegant.
Application design I have been struggling with for a long time.  I can
get things to work, but I know they are not the best solutions.

Another book on human interface design.  I would like to have a better
understanding of why and how I should layout an interface.

Any recommendations would great.
