The Busy Coder's Guide to Advanced Android Development

If you come to this book having learned about Android from other sources, thanks for joining the CommonsWare community! Android, while aimed at small devices, is a surprisingly vast platform, making it difficult for any given book, training, wiki, or other source to completely cover everything one needs to know. This book will hopefully augment your knowledge of the ins and outs of Android-dom and make it easier for you to create "killer apps" that use the Android platform.

If you picked this book up expecting to learn those topics, you really need another source first, since this book focuses on other topics. While we are fans of The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development, there are plenty of other books available covering the Android basics, blog posts, wikis, and, of course, the main Android site itself. A list of currently-available Android books can be found on the Android Programming knol.

Each subscriber gets personalized editions of all editions of each title: both those mirroring printed editions and in-between updates that are only available in digital form. That way, your digital books are never out of date for long, and you can take advantage of new material as it is made available instead of having to wait for a whole new print edition. For example, when new releases of the Android SDK are made available, this book will be quickly updated to be accurate with changes in the APIs.
