If you own a mac you can just download the 30-day trial and try it.
It's always better to see it for yourself instead of hearing it from someone else.
You can download the trial here: http://www.apple.com/aperture/trial/

I would also encourage you to do a trial download of Photoshop Lightroom, which is the version of PS most comparable to Aperture.

Here's a video tutorial for LR that will also give you an idea of its features and functionality:

Some prefer Aperture, while others like Lightroom better. Coming from a PC, I just migrated my LR program and files to the iMac, so I couldn't tell you how it compares to Aperture.

No, you cannot dodge and burn in Aperture. As suggested, try the demo to see if you like it. Keep in mind though that it uses the memory on your video card quite heavily so the more video memory the better.

But really, tell us in detail what you want to do.
Then we can suggest which app you should get.
