More advanced topics such as intents are also covered, as are touch screen handling, gesture recognition, and the recording and playback of audio. This edition of the book also covers printing, transitions, and foldable device support.
 
The concepts of material design are also covered in detail, including the use of floating action buttons, Snackbars, tabbed interfaces, card views, navigation drawers, and collapsing toolbars.

    A guided meditation designed to help you achieve success!In the past your thoughts have not supported you. Perhaps because you don’t know another way of thinking. Perhaps you were exposed to negative thinking growing up. It doesn’t matter the reason because today you are trading those old, self-sabotaging beliefs in for new empowered thinking that supports success in all areas of your life.In this guided meditation, you will move past the fears that have held you back and you’ll decide to never again play small. You’ll begin regaining your confidence, and you will take the power you have given away, back.Adopt a Success Mindset has been designed carefully to erase the negative thinking that has blocked you from achieving success.This guided meditation comes with two valuable ‘extras’:1.	2 different endings. Besides the actual guided meditation itself, you will receive a choice of a ‘sleep’ or ‘wake’ ending depending on whether you are listening in the morning or evening.2.	A deep sleep music track. If you choose a sleep ending, this track will help deepen your sleep after you have completed your meditation session. Hi:) I’m Amy Applebaum. And I’m really glad you are here!As a business owner who has made millions and a Life Success coach who has coached dozens of ambitious women (and some men), I believe very strongly that success is just as much about ‘how you think’ as it is ‘what you do’.Success is first and foremost an Inside Job.I have seen it in my own life.I’ve seen it with the entrepreneurs and industry leaders I have worked with whose lives have been wildly transformed just by changing their thoughts and then taking actions on those new beliefs.Let’s face it. We have a lot on our plate. And those of us who are running our own businesses even more so.We are giving so much to the world around us.But things won’t shift until we get those birds on our shoulders to stop the negative chitchat.And the best fastest way to cut the self-doubt in its tracks is through meditation.And I make doing meditation dead easy.My MOVE collections are guided meditations.You don’t have to learn the ‘ins and outs ’of meditation. All you need to do is throw those earbuds in and drift off to sleep!Downloaded over 500,000 times on places like iTunes and Audible, my MOVE meditations don’t just ‘relax’ and distress, they are specifically designed to help you get MOVING and unstuck.So that you can finally live the life you have always wanted!“In just a short period of time I’ve noticed that it’s made a significant difference in my life. The confidence and money-making downloads have been especially helpful. I’ve been telling friends and family about them ever since. Thank you so much for your time, and for the benefit I’ve already gotten from your amazing meditations.” ~ David MenconiIsn’t it time? Isn’t it time to set aside the roadblocks that are impeding you from being the most successful possible version of you?And it’s so easy.Just put the earbuds in and listen.Nothing simpler.All you need to do to open the door to successful living the EASY wayis waiting for you here.

    A thrilling scientific detective story, The Balance Within tells how researchers finally uncovered the elusive mind-body connection and what it means for our health. Since ancient times humans have felt intuitively that emotions and health are linked, and recently there has been much popular speculation about this notion.  But until now, without compelling evidence, it has been impossible to say for sure that such a connection really exists and especially how it works. Now, that evidence has been discovered.In this beautifully written book, Dr. Esther Sternberg, whose discoveries were pivotal in helping to solve this mystery, provides first hand accounts of the breakthrough experiments that revealed the physical mechanisms - the nerves, cells, and hormones - used by the brain and immune system to communicate with each other.  She describes just how stress can make us more susceptible to all types of illnesses, and how the immune system can alter our moods.  Finally, she explains how our understanding of these connections in scientific terms is helping to answer such crucial questions as "Does stress make you sick?" "Is a positive outlook the key to better health?" and "How do our personal relationships, work, and other aspects of our lives affect our health?"A fascinating, elegantly written portrait of this rapidly emerging field with enormous potential for finding new ways to treat disease and cope with stress, The Balance Within is essential reading for anyone interested in making their body and mind whole again.

    An “absorbing” look at how our species evolved, from the curator of human evolution at the American Museum of Natural History (Kirkus Reviews). 
     
    What makes us so different from those other animals? How did we get this way? How do we know? And what exactly are we? These questions are what make human evolution a subject of general fascination. Ian Tattersall, one of those rare scientists who is also a graceful writer, addresses them in this delightful book. 
     
    Tattersall leads the reader around the world and into the far reaches of the past, showing what the science of human evolution is up against—from the sparsity of evidence to the pressures of religious fundamentalism. Looking with dispassion and humor at our origins, Tattersall offers a wholly new definition of what it is to be human.
