Getting started developing with Ruby on Rails 3
I recommend the following books to get you started developing with Ruby on Rails 3. Firstly, Ruby on Rails 3 Tutorial: Learn Rails by Example by Michael Hartl. This is a must read for aspiring Rails developers. The tutorial hands-on style makes it a very accessible read. You will be developing Rails code under version control with Git and deploying to Heroku in no time at all! You can also view the tutorial online. Then to gain a deeper understanding of Rails I recommend Rails 3 Way by Obie Fernandez. Another great book that will walk you through step by step how to build a real world application is Agile Web Development with Rails (Pragmatic Programmers).
After finishing these books and you find that you want deeper understanding of Ruby then try Beginning Ruby: From Novice to Professional by Peter Cooper or The Ruby Way, Second Edition: Solutions and Techniques in Ruby Programming (2nd Edition) by Hal Fulton.
If your looking to learn quickly the starting pieces for building Rails applications then try online Getting Started with Rails at the Ruby on Rails Guides. I also highly recommend you check out the Top Recommended Resources for Rails over at the RailsApps Project.
