This book is great for developers who are new to Qt and Qt Creator and who are interested in harnessing the power of Qt for cross-platform development. If you have basic experience programming in C++, you have what it takes to create engaging cross-platform applications using Qt and Qt Creator!
It's an ideal beginner's guide. If you want an advanced QT book, this one is not for you.

does a body good to recommend a book based on subject. This is a new-ish book on the closest thing that C/C++ has to actual Rapid Application Development (RAD). This is very important to me as I don't have time to build a GUI in guile and map everything to something in languages like python. I like my speed, I like my C++ and my GUI without endless macros and junk in the libraries (in order, Windows, Gtk, Boost). When I have a need for a program, I don't have time to design it. I put the functionality on a window and clean it up later. I'm a programmer not a manager, so I know that most of what I need to do is in the background. Once it functions, I pretty it up. QtCreator is not Java and is not based on Java, so the IDE and compiler are very fast.

This is a good book on how to use QtCreator. It focuses on how to create GUI and doesn't overkill with repeating on Qt class description/functionality you can find on the qt website. It really helps in quickly "hands-on" GUI creation. Understandable for newbies. A must have!
