Most people prefer paper to a computer monitor, and since Rails has become
so buzzworthy it makes it tempting for an author to write about it to make
some money.

By your argument everything that has several books about it should be hard
to use and/or not well documented. Yet we have books on iPods, Mac OS X,
Tivos and many others things that are considered pinnacles of user
interface design.

Maybe authors just decide to write about popular
subjects???</rhetorical_question>
