Great way to start with Ruby
Yes, books…
I have purchased the “Programming Ruby” Book from Pragmatic Programmers, and based on what I’ve read (I’ve read around 60 pages up to now) - this is an excellent book that guides you through Ruby from the very beginning (you do not even need to know what classes and methods are) to the very end (which is a long section describing methods). I recommend everyone to purchase it on-line, and while there, you can consider also purchasing their Ajax and Rails books (I haven’t bought them yet, but they are high on my wishlist).
Recently bought the Agile Web Development with Rails and a month ago got the Pragmatic Programmers guide. Absolutely incredible pair of books. Will likely be getting the Ruby one soon. The authors style and level of experience is fantastic.
Really good investment.
