Howdy all, My book, Ruby in Practice, went into early access this morning. You can get more information at: http://www.manning.com/mcanally/ Ruby in Practice shows you detailed strategies and specific Ruby techniques you can use in your projects. You'll see concrete examples of integration, messaging, web development, databases and more, all presented in a clear Problem/Solution format. It will also help you push your Ruby knowledge further with sections on aspect of dynamic programming and testing.
