About the Author

Alex Shaw has been an Android fan boy since Android 1.5 arrived, and he began developing software for it almost immediately He has presented at DroidCon in Berlin and London, and written applications for business, academia, and pleasure An alumnus of The University

of Edinburgh, he has kept close business and social ties with the Scottish geek scene His consulting company, Glastonbridge Software Limited, provides development resources to the Edinburgh software industry In his spare time, he writes generative music applications and talks a lot of nonsense

Hearty thanks to my partner, Amy Worthington, for putting up with my

constant stream of ideas whenever writing was on my mind Thanks also to

my Mum and to my close friends, who have supported me when stress and

anxiety were taking their toll Thanks also to the team at Packt, who put

up with my erratic e-mail discipline and occasional late submissions, with

patience and kindness This book has been an adventure and an experience

to remember
