Yes I was very disappointed with this book as well - total waste of time and money. I felt constantly that this Jerome dude took all those screen shots and code pictures just to pad his 15 pages worth of material (mostly copied from Google pages) to 300 page book. I'm impressed that you went all the way to chapter 8 of that miserable dribble.
For beginner's tutorial there is nothing better than Notes tutorial that comes with the API. Follow it understand it expand on it and you'll cover about 80% of Android.
