The key to this book is that it is a concoction of both basic and complex topics. The expression of ideas and distinctive style and rhythm of the authors is much like poetry for programming. This book does not focus on linear progression, as learning Android development does not generally begin linearly. This book, as well as our subsequent books, aim to simulate this erratic and broad learning pattern. It is also our goal to place special emphasis on the learning-by-doing approach. Each chapter will provide a fully functional application whose source code can be downloaded and examined for free We not only tell you about programming concepts, we show them.About the AuthorsLeonard Tatum (Software Developer) has over a decade of programming and software development experience, with several additional years of developing mobile applications.
