| There's an ever-growing choice of Ruby reading material for your perusal. But, buyer beware. Most books are mediocre at best. Some books outright suck, while a handful are true finds. Here are some tips on picking Ruby books: See if your local library has it. Read reviews and ask around. Ask about books on the ruby-talk mailing list. Do not ask on the Ruby Forum Web site. Give more weight to comments from people who frequently help answer questions on ruby-talk; they are the ones who actually know stuff. Be deeply suspicious of reviews from people posting via Ruby Forum. (Yes, that's a broad categorization, and yes, there's a reason for it.) Consider what you need, and what to reasonably expect from a book. A good number of books can be fairly half-assed when taken as a whole, but some may contain just that piece of info that saves you time and money on a job before becoming your newest $40.00 doorstop. | ||
