I'm interested in learning more about Ruby on Rails. I already know quite a bit about what Java and Perl can do, and want to learn more about Ruby so I can decide what to use when designing a new application.
Could anyone suggest a good Ruby on Rails book for a beginner or any good tutorial websites?

Re: What's the best Ruby on Rails book?
Tue, February 28, 2006 - 6:14 PMHi Jenni,
Well, the only real book available right now is "Agile Web Development with Rails," which you can find at:
www.pragmaticprogrammer.com/titl...ails/
A review of the book is at:
books.slashdot.org/article.pl
There is a free RoR tutorial, called "Four Days on Rails." I found it a bit confusing and out of date. You can get it at:
rails.homelinux.org/
Also, O'Reilly is currently developing a RoR book, called "Ruby on Rails: Up and Running".
You can buy the "rough cuts" version, which lets you read the manuscript as it is developed.
The URL for this book is:
www.oreilly.com/catalog/rubyrails/
I expect more titiles will appear in the next year, as well as an expansion of the RoR framework.
Cheers,
Adrien
