About the Book

Google Android dominates the mobile market, and by targeting Android, your apps can run on most of the phones
and tablets in the world. This new fourth edition of the #1 book for learning Android covers all modern Android
versions from Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) through Android 5.0. Freshly added material covers new Android features
such as Fragments, Google Play Services, and Loaders, in addition to the latest Android Wear and Android TV
platforms. Android is a platform you can't afford not to learn, and this book gets you started.Android is a software
toolkit for mobile phones and tablets, created by Google. It's inside more than a billion devices, making Android the
number one platform for application developers. Your own app could be running on all those devices!Getting started
developing with Android is easy. You don't even need access to an Android phone, just a computer where you can
install the Android SDK and the phone emulator that comes with it. Within minutes, Hello, Android gets you creating
your first working application: Android's version of "Hello, World." From there, you'll build up a more substantial
example: an Ultimate Tic-Tac-Toe game. By gradually adding features to the game, you'll learn about many aspects
of Android programming, such as creating animated user interfaces, playing music and sound effects, building
location-based services (including GPS and cell-tower triangulation), and accessing web services. You'll also learn
how to publish your applications to the Google Play Store.This fourth edition of the bestselling Android classic has
been revised for Android 4.1-4.3 (Jelly Bean), 4.4 (KitKat), and Android 5.0. Every page and example was reviewed
and updated for compatibility with the latest versions and streamlined based on reader feedback.If you'd rather be
coding than reading about coding, this book is for you.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
