Very Disappointing
I was hoping to learn Swift 2 from the ground up, at least to an intermediate level by learning the basic concepts thoroughly. Such information cannot be found in this ‘introductory’ book. The first several chapters are quite thorough in basics and I had no problems with them at all. However, the last several chapters deal with very complex code, offering little or no explanation as to what the code does or why the programs are coded this way. There are also some errata in this book which lead to even more confusion and frustration.
