Review: Good book - This book does do a good job of presenting information about Ruby. I am a novice learner and I was able to keep up.
Review: Excellent first or second Ruby book! - The first two editions of this book had gotten rave reviews so when I wanted to re-learn Ruby I chose the third edition. I am very pleased with the choice! The Well Grounded Rubyist explains a lot of useful Ruby detail and usage in an engaging and fun way. Object Orientation is key to Ruby and the first few chapters bring your right in to it. Kudos to the authors!
