I am in the midst of writing the Ruby on Rails Bible for Wiley. The book should be available early spring, perhaps in mid-May. Remind me and I'll see that you get a copy to review as well. Perhaps it will be time to update your list around then! :) Timothy Fisher Antonio, nice list that you’ve put together. I am in the midst of writing the Ruby on Rails Bible for Wiley.

I usually end up buying advanced Ruby/Rails books on my own and when beginners titles are available at a library, I usually borrow them to see how good they are and what approach they take. However I don't feel compelled to spend 30/40/50 dollars on an introductory book that I don't need. In the case of Peter's book, I did not find it in my local libraries therefore I didn't have a chance to look at it, and a review copy would be useful. That said, even if I should get that book or any other title from Apress, these won't be featured in the Ruby and Rails book pages unless I deem them to be excellent and as good as the existing titles. Thanks, Peter. ;-)

They have a whole range of Ruby and Rails books now. I’ll talk to Apress and see what they can do. They have a whole range of Ruby and Rails books now.
