Apple has a very good short intro to Objective-C:

<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ObjectiveC/ 
ObjC.pdf#search=%22ObjC.pdf%22>

After that I'd recommend reading the F-Script source some...

If that gets you interested enough to buy a book, I highly recommend  
Aaron Hillegass' "Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X" and if you'd like  
to do graphics I'd recommend Garfinkel & Mahoney's "Cocoa Applications"

GNUStep has garbage collection.  And Apple's version of Objective-C  
will get it soon according to some partial docs on Apple's websites.
