Bar none, the most essential book on the established Rubyist's bookshelf.

Not a particularly useful reference or tutorial. Fulton concentrates on canned "recipes" for solving specific problems; really all you can do is try to generalize from these approaches. His choices of problems to solve seem rather questionable (finding Easter, for instance) and he doesn't spend much time talking about best practices in Ruby, so it's ultimately just a bunch of scripts that won't be relevant to most people.

Очень подробная книга по рельсам. Дало повод поковыряться в недрах самого фреймворка. Читал правда 4ю редакцию.

Ruby is a great language, but finding a good Ruby book is tricky. Hopefully this is the one that will make it all make sense . . .
