I'm looking for guidance from the community on building the backend for an android app. Do you know of any thorough books/tutorials that include code examples of how to build a Web Service that would be used as the back-end of an Android app? I would be particularly interested code advice about security and crud functionality.

#2You have a few options.
1. Phonegap.
2. UIWebView for iOS and android.webkit.WebView for Android.
3. Sencha. etc...
It shouldn't take that long to do this.

I have a website built with ruby on rails which I was hoping could be converted to a webservice. I would really like to use Ruby on Rails so that the website can be used as an html front end and webserive simultaneously (if this is good practice).
I'll take a look a phonegap. That name seems to be popping up a lot in google searches.
