For most Android developers Fragments should form part of their daily work. But do we really understand them? This book starts with an overview of when to use fragments (and also when not to) and introduces them using an example that it follows. If you are already familiar with fragments you might want to skip the first part but should pay attention to the the part about lifecycle. It details exactly how lifecycle and associated methods of activities and fragment are bound. The last part explains actionbar navigtion patterns with fragments. Sadly the menu drawer is missing. A very important book, just some hundred pages but worth reading
