Read google book in android

i have developed an application in which i fetch books using googleapibook search. I have an isbn no. Now i want to let my user read that book page by page. But i didn't find any method or solution to read book in java or android.

Here is my code.

package com.project.bookhunt;

import java.net.URL;
import java.util.ArrayList;

import org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.GetMethod;
import org.json.JSONArray;
import org.json.JSONObject;

import android.content.Context;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class BookSearchParser 
{
    Context m_context;
    static ArrayList<Book_Item> books= new ArrayList<Book_Item>();
    String searchResult;
    BookSearchParser(Context c,URL url)
    {
        try
        {

           m_context=c;
           HttpClient client = new HttpClient();

           GetMethod getMethod = new GetMethod(url.toString());
           int statusCode = client.executeMethod(getMethod);
           System.out.println("status Code"+statusCode);
           System.out.println(getMethod.getResponseBodyAsString());
           searchResult=getMethod.getResponseBodyAsString();
           parseJSON(searchResult);
        }
        catch(Exception e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

    public static ArrayList<Book_Item> getBooks()
    {
        return books;
    }

    private void parseJSON(String object)
     {
         try
         {
         books=new ArrayList<Book_Item>();

         if(jSonObject.getInt("totalItems")>0)

         }
         catch(Exception e)
         {
             e.printStackTrace();
         }

     }
}

Here with a possible solution.

As you are using the Book Search API and you are able to get the ISBN of the book

Then, to allow your user to read the book , maybe:

Using a WebView with the Google Docs Embedded Viewer API + your ISBN you will be able to load the book preview inside that WebView

for example, a WebView with this code:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
  <head>
    <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
    <title>Google Books Embedded Viewer API Example</title>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.google.com/jsapi"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      google.load("books", "0");

      function initialize() {
        var viewer = new google.books.DefaultViewer(document.getElementById('viewerCanvas'));
        viewer.load('**ISBN:0738531367**');
      }

      google.setOnLoadCallback(initialize);
    </script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="viewerCanvas" style="width: 600px; height: 500px"></div>
  </body>
</html>

This is my solution for you, the trick is located at : google.books.DefaultViewer(document.getElementById('viewerCanvas')); viewer.load('ISBN:0738531367');

I hope this helps you

for a better understanding on this please visit http://code.google.com/apis/books/docs/viewer/developers_guide.html at The "Hello, World" of the Embedded Viewer API

When you use that API you can get something like this: http://code.google.com/apis/books/docs/viewer/examples/book-simple.html
