[kwlug-disc] Android Cookbook - book review

[Richard Weait]

Dear All,

Android Cookbook
Ian F. Darwin [Editor]

You'll remember Ian Darwin from his presentations at Ontario GNU Linux
Fest.  This friend of KWLUG and long time trainer / educator and
contributor to UNIX-like OSes has published his latest book.  And it
seems on-topic and of interest to some of you.  Run right out and buy
it immediately.

ISBN: 798-1-449-38841-6

The cookbook format of the book has appeal for programmers of all
levels.  Are you new to Android and want to know how to get tactile
feedback for your app?  Want to convert an Android app from phone to
tablet device? Interested in the built in text-to-speech and speech to
text facilities in Android?  This book provides best-practices and
code on 22 chapters covering "Hello World" to packaging and
distribution of your app.

Highly recommended.

Best regards,
Richard
