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.
