Well, if you want to read about design patterns, the one book you should make sure you read is:
"Design patterns : elements of reusable object-oriented software" http://www.amazon.co.uk/Design-patterns-elements-reusable-object-oriented/dp/0201633612/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1275578028&sr=1-1 If you are new to Android development, there are a number of good books out these days, but 3 popular and well maintained ones are: - The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development (Mark Murphy) http://commonsware.com/ - Hello, Android (Ed Burnette) - Professional Android 2 (Reto Meier) The on-line tutorials are also invaluable, make sure you check those out too.
