Reading this book, I was able to get an application up and running leveraging many of the most frequently used elements in the API. This book is a very good first step in getting familiar with the platform and making real progress.This book is probably not for the beginning programmer, and whether or not its even for the beginning JAVA programmer might be debatable. If you're new to Java, but familiar with object oriented principles, you're probably in good shape. If both Java and Object Oriented Programming or foreign to you, you might be better served getting a primer on Java before you start reading this book. Of course, if you're an experienced Java programmer, you'll fly through this book with no problem.Once you get up to speed with the Android API and have been able to write some basic applications, you'll definitely want to explore the API beyond what this book will teach you, and there are many other really great books to choose from when you're ready. Until then, you'll be very happy with this title. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Hello Android *by S***H on Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2011* I'd been picking up Java on the side and a friend recommended this book to me when I mentioned an interest in Android apps. This has been a good book. Easy to read, easy to follow. I have a strong background in C and a few other programming languages from my time as a software developer and this has been a nice addition to my library. It's also a good reference to the Google Android docs/sites and to the various user groups. I would recommend this book. If only Kernighan and Ritchie had written "The C Programming Language" like Mr Burnette wrote this one, the K & R book would have been a much more entertaining read. db ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent introduction to Android *by E***S on Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2011* I've found this an excellent introduction to Android for someone who already knows Java. Specifically, I've found the chapters building up a Sudoku application to be very useful. The classes and methods are clear, and the author generally provides the right amount of commentary. In the few cases where something isn't clear, one can go to the forum, where the author quickly responds to questions, making the book even more valuable. All of the code is available online, which I've found useful as well.I have some quibbles with the programming style, such as the embedding of magic numbers, but these are minor. Potential buyers should be aware that this is not a complete guide to Android. For example, there is very little about concurrency, with no mention of AsyncTask, for example. Still, I would recommend it as a very reasonably priced, well written, first book on Android.Update: I recommended this book to students when teaching an upper-division college course on mobile application development. Students found it so valuable that they told me I should make it required the next time I teach the course. I've never been told that about any other book. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/2737348-hello-android-publisher-pragmatic-bookshelf-3th-third-edition-text-only](https://www.desertcart.be/products/2737348-hello-android-publisher-pragmatic-bookshelf-3th-third-edition-text-only) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-07*
