Each chapter deepens your Ruby knowledge and shows you how it connects to show more Rails. You'll gain confidence working with objects and classes and learn how to leverage Ruby's elegant, expressive syntax for Rails application power. And you'll become a better Rails developer through a deep understanding of the design of Rails itself and how to take advantage of it. Newcomers to Ruby will find a Rails-oriented Ruby introduction that's easy to read and that includes dynamic programming techniques, an exploration of Ruby objects, classes, and data structures, and many neat examples of Ruby and Rails code in action.

This book is a great introduction to Object Oriented Programming from a ruby perspective. For those new to programming and interested in all the hype about Rails, this book takes you from ground zero to really understanding how create powerful applications without just relying on the core Rails methods. It fills in the gaps left behind by the Pragmatic books.
This is definately amust have for programmers coming from a PHP background.
