Android, Google's platform for mobile application development, provides powerful features, a robust SDK, and almost limitless possibilities. It's not hard to find the information a developer needs to build a simple Android app, but then what?

Android in Practice is a treasure trove of Android goodness, with over 100 tested, ready-to-use techniques, covering the new Android 3.0 SDK, including complete end-to-end example applications and practical tips for real world mobile application developers.
