Basic Book on Mac Programming

[Mac Donald]

Can anyone recommend such a book? I am thinking of something that would introduce you to the Teminal, Scripts/Automator and maybe a little XCode or CoreImage or even WebObjects (forgive me if the latter three are maybe too complicated for a layman :o ). . . . For someone who knows a lot about computers in general for a "layman" but hasn't done any programming since learning a little BASIC and LOGO when I was in elementary school and junior high.

Anyone recommend anything??

Actually, I'm just going to close this and point you to some existing relevant threads in the Programmers Nook forum. ;)
