Subject: Re: What is the bes Ruby's book for beginners?

You'll love Ruby.

The book that got me really understanding how to tackle beginner
problems was Everyday Scripting with Ruby for Teams, Testers and You
by Brian Marick. It's for the true beginner.

You'll also want to devour "Ruby Cookbook" (O'Reilly) by Carleson and
Richardson. It's never farther than arms reach for me.

Unlike other books mentioned in this post, mine will cost you real,
physical legal tender.
