Sinopsis

This book is a comprehensive guide to building Android applications using Android Studio Narwhal (2025.1.1), Jetpack Compose, and the Kotlin programming language. It is designed to provide the knowledge and skills you need to create modern Android apps using the latest development tools and frameworks.
 
We begin with foundational steps, including setting up an Android Studio development environment, followed by a detailed introduction to Kotlin, the language underpinning Android development. This section covers core aspects of Kotlin, including data types, operators, control flow, functions, lambdas, and coroutines, establishing a solid foundation in object-oriented programming principles.
 
Next, we cover Jetpack Compose, Google’s innovative toolkit for building native user interfaces, including an in-depth look at Compose components and layout structures, including rows, columns, boxes, flows, pagers, and lists. You’ll also gain insights into Android project architecture and Android Studio’s Compose development mode.
 
Advanced topics are also covered, including state management, modifiers, and UI navigation. You will also learn how to create reusable layout components, implement biometric authentication for enhanced security, and accelerate development with Gemini AI.
 
The guide also covers specialized techniques, including graphics rendering, animations, transitions, Kotlin Flows, and gesture handling. Practical data management solutions, including view models, Room database access, live data, and the Database Inspector, are explored in detail. For developers interested in monetization, this guide also includes a dedicated section on implementing in-app billing.
 
The concluding chapters provide a comprehensive overview of app packaging and the publication process on the Google Play Store.
 
Throughout the book, each concept is reinforced with hands-on tutorials and downloadable source code. Additionally, over 50 online quizzes are available to test your knowledge and understanding.

    Fragmented - A Doctor's Quest to...

    MD Ilana Yurkiewicz

    There's an unspoken assumption when we go to see a doctor: the doctor knows our medical story and is making decisions based on that story. But reality often falls short. Medical records vanish when we switch doctors. Critical details of life-saving treatment plans get lost in muddled electronic charts. The doctors we see change according to specialty, hospital shifts, or an insurer's whims. 
     
      
     
    In this gripping narrative from medicine's front lines, Ilana Yurkiewicz reveals how a system that doesn't talk to itself puts insupportable burdens on physicians, patients, and caregivers. The stories she tells are at once harrowing and commonplace. A patient narrowly averts an unnecessary, invasive heart procedure by producing a worn rhythm strip he has carried in his pocket for a decade. A man diagnosed with leukemia while visiting from abroad has thirty-one physicians, but no one he can call "his" doctor, with tragic consequences. When Yurkiewicz's own father falls ill, a culture that incentivizes health care providers to react with quick fixes leads to weeks of additional suffering. 
     
     
     
    The system is hanging by a thread, and we need better solutions. Yurkiewicz issues a clear-eyed call for change, naming concrete reforms doctors and policymakers can make, and empowering patients and their loved ones to advocate for themselves in the meantime.

    Echolocation

    As a series, the poems in Echolocation swing back and forth from the natural world keenly observed--rain, birds, sunflowers, even a clam-- to the contortions of the human heart, mostly caused by hurt and loss. And isn't that where the best poetry resides, between the thing and the emotion, the swan and the grief? 
    --BILLY COLLINS 
    Echolocation is a collection driven by image and figurative language-- often the simile--and Bliumis-Dunn has both power of observation and imagination which she uses to great, lovely, terrifying and always compelling effect in these vivid, near- and far-looking poems. 
    --MARTHA RHODES 
    Sally Bluimis-Dunn's spare and stunning lyrics of grief and loss restore us to the clarity, and the clear finality, of our deepest emotions. They are grave and formal while being at the same time almost unbearably human and intimate. 
    --VIJAY SESHADRI 
    Sally Bliumis-Dunn leaves the reader of Echolocation in deceptively complex verbal landscapes in which both literal and figurative language play off each other with spare yet lapidary results in poems that focus on such everyday subjects as family, animals, loss, the seasons, menopause, and disaster with a compassionate, distilling eye. The voice that emanates from these poems is quiet but deeply resonant with generous stirrings beneath. She writes with what John Keats has called "disinterestedness"--a clear-headed objectivity that combines lucid narrative with lyrical charge.
