Best books for Android development

I started learning Android development from the official sources : Dev Guide -  http://developer.android.com/guide/index.html and I recommend them for beginners. I also created a list of books for learning, you can find them on Amazon (or for free in other places like this):
  • Professional Android Application Development (Wrox Programmer to Programmer) (Amazon);
  • Professional Android 2 Application Development (Wrox Programmer to Programmer) (Amazon); 
  • Pro Android (Amazon);
  • Hello, Android: Introducing Google's Mobile Development Platform (Pragmatic Programmers) (Amazon);
  • Android Wireless Application Development (Amazon);
  • Unlocking Android: A Developer's Guide (Amazon);
  • Beginning Android (Amazon);
  • Beginning Android 2 (Amazon);
  • Android Programming Tutorials (Amazon);
  • The Busy Coder's Guide to Advanced Android Development (Amazon); 
  • Android Application Development: Programming with the Google SDK (Amazon). 
The best book is the book that you read ;)
Feel free to suggest in comments other books or the book which you consider the best.

Hi,

Recently I came across some great articles on your site.
The other day, I was discussing (http://android-apps-blog.blogspot.in/2011/03/best-books-for-android-development.html)with my colleagues and they suggested I submit an article of my own. Your site is just perfect for what I have written!
Would it be ok to submit the article? It is free of charge, of course!

Let me know what you think
Contact me at anelieivanova@gmail.com

It is being said that Programmers don't read the books, but I think a beginners should have to start learning from the books reading as it helps to clear theoretical base. I've read the book named "The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development by Mark Murphy". It is really helpful.

Hmmm….you’ve got me thinking. Are you sure that freelancing is a worthwhile job? Simply put…is it even a `real job’? Your blog is sure to convince even the hardest of skeptics. Maybe it’s time to take a break. There is too much stress around me and I am grateful to you for showing me the way out. Freelancer – it does sound good on my tongue. And you are also telling me that I can make more money from home? I did check on sites like cheap graphic design,creative flyer design, which are top-listed heavenly places for the freelancing crowd. They are quite genuine. Finally, I have come to a decision. It is time to move on…as a freelancer!
