Google on the Go: Using an Android-Powered Mobile Phone


This is a good book, very readable and accurate. Unfortunately it is already out of date as it came out before the current "Cupcake" ROM but it is still useful. I read it quickly and definitely picked up enough pointers to justify the price, which was very low (although shipping was expensive!)
Recommended for the average user who wants to get the most out of their Android experience.
