Books

The Books app lets you search books through the Google Books API.

There are three activities: the main activity contains a search textbox. The results of your search are shown in a list of books, with title, authors, publisher and published date.

If you clilck on one of the books, you get to the detail activity: here you can see the cover image of the book, and the description.

There’s also an advanced search activity: you can search books by title, author, publisher and isbn.

The five most recent searches made from this activity are saved automatically.

Thanks to the Google Books content, your app will be always up to date and contain several millions of relevant results.

This is part of a tutorial project made for Pluralsight.
