Can I get some help learning the basics of Android?

Learning the basics of Android

I've used my Nexus7 for a couple of years as a basic user.
I have experience as a developer on PC's but I'm really a novice on the android platform.
I followed some instructions recently to root my Nexus but basically I'm lost when I read things.
I'm looking for recommendations for learning the basics. Books or sites that start at the bottom.
Thanks,
Dave
