This book for all those people:
• For the person who thinks programming is too hard (our tester): it’s not as hard as all that. Programming has a bad reputation because computers used to be too slow. To make programs run fast enough, programmers had to use programming languages that made them tell the computer all kinds of fiddly details. Computers are now fast enough that we can use languages that make them figure out the fiddly little details. As a result, programming is now much easier.
• For the person who gets bogged down when writing or changing larger scripts (our analyst): you don’t yet have the skills to master complexity. This book teaches them. It’s a tutorial in the modern style of programming, one that emphasizes writing tests first (testdriven programming), borrowing other people’s work in bits and pieces, growing programs gradually, and constantly keeping them clean. Many scripts will be one-shot: write it, use it, throw it away. But
for scripts you plan to keep around, these skills will let you do it. (In truth, many professional programmers I meet haven’t yet learned these particular skills, so they will find this book a useful introduction.)
• For the person who knows the wrong languages well (our programmer): languages like Java, C#, C++, and C are perfectly fine languages—in their niche. But their niche is not writing smaller programs quickly, especially not smaller programs that manipulate text and files rather than numbers and internal data structures. You need to add another language to your repertoire. In this book, you’ll learn a language—Ruby—that is well suited to each of these three audiences. It’s easy to learn and quick to write. While it has the features needed for simple scripts that transform or search text, it also has all the features needed to cope with complexity.

Описание:
It’s easy to write "correct” Ruby code. But it’s far harder to gain the fluency needed to write great Ruby code. To do that, you need to go beyond syntax and absorb the "Ruby way” of thinking and problem solving. In Eloquent Ruby, Russ Olsen helps you understand Ruby like true Rubyists do—so you can leverage its immense, surprising power.
Olsen draws on years of experience internalizing the Ruby culture and teaching Ruby to other programmers. He guides you to the "Ah Ha!” moments when it suddenly becomes clear why Ruby works the way it does and how you can take advantage of its unique approach.
Eloquent Ruby starts small, answering tactical questions focused on a single statement, method, test, or bug. You’ll learn how to write code that actually looks like Ruby (not Java); why Ruby has so many control structures; how to use strings, expressions, and symbols; and what dynamic typing is really good for.
Next, Olsen turns to bigger questions related to building methods and classes. You’ll discover why Ruby classes contain so many tiny methods, when to use operator overloading, and when to avoid it. Olsen explains how to write Ruby code that writes its own code—and why you’ll want to. He concludes with powerful project-level features and techniques ranging from gems to Domain Specific Languages.
The newest book in the renowned Addison-Wesley Professional Ruby Series, Eloquent Ruby will help you "put on your Ruby-colored glasses” and get results that make you a true believer.

Описание:
A former colleague of mine used to say that thick books about design patterns were evidence of an inadequate programming language. What he meant was that, because design patterns are the common idioms of code, a good programming language should make them very easy to implement. An ideal language would so thoroughly integrate the patterns that they would almost disappear from sight.
The Ruby programming language takes us a step closer to my old friend’s ideal, a language that makes implementing patterns so easy that sometimes they fade into the background. Building patterns in Ruby is easier for a number of reasons: 
• Ruby is dynamically typed. By dispensing with static typing, Ruby dramatically reduces the code overhead of building most programs, including those that implement patterns.
• Ruby has code closures. It allows us to pass around chunks of code and associated scope without having to laboriously construct entire classes and objects that do nothing else.
• Ruby classes are real objects. Because a class in Ruby is just another object, we can do any of the usual runtime things to a Ruby class that we can do to any other object: We can create totally new classes. We can modify existing classes by adding or deleting methods. We can even clone a class and change the copy, leaving the original alone.
• Ruby has an elegant system of code reuse.

First you'll learn how to build out your shared, virtual, or dedicated host. Then, you'll see how to build your applications for production and deploy them with one step, every time. Deploying Rails Applications will take you from a simple shared host through a highly scalable clustered and balanced setup with Nginx. See how to tell whether you've bought enough firepower, and learn how to optimize your Rails projects applications in a systemic, rational way.
 
Take advantage of advanced caching techniques, and become and expert with the latest servers in Nginx and Mongrel. Don't worry. You'll get a dose of Apache too. Not only will you learn how to configure your production environment, you'll also see how to monitor it with free, automated tools that can restart your servers when the memory use gets too high for comfort. You'll see how to take a performance baseline, profile for bottlenecks, and solve the most common performance problems you're likely to see.

Want to learn all about Ruby on Rails, the web application framework that is inspiring developers around the world? This practical hands-on guide for first-time Ruby on Rails programmers will walk you through installing the required software on a Windows, Mac or Linux computer. And before you get coding, an entire chapter is devoted to object oriented programming in Ruby, so you'll be completely confident with the Ruby language before you begin working with Rails.
 
The example application that the book builds - a user-generated news web site - is built upon with each following chapter, and concepts such as sessions, cookies and basic AJAX usage are gradually introduced. Different aspects of Rails, such as ActiveRecord, migrations and automated testing are explored with each feature that is added to the application.
 
The book finishes with chapters on debugging, benchmarking and deployment to a live web server.
 
By the end of the book, you'll have built a fully-featured Web 2.0 application and deployed it to the Web. And all code is up-to-date for Rails 1.2, so you can begin coding immediately with the latest version of Rails.
