I haven't finished reading it yet, but it's every bit the book
I wanted a few years ago when I had the misfortune to buy the
Pragmatic "Programming Ruby" instead. It's properly structured,
deals thoroughly with each subject before moving to the next,
and doesn't have any pointless and incomprehensible tutorial
content.

All up, an admirable reference. Just buy it.
