If you know Ruby and just want to learn Rails, several other books are good, but they tended to leave me lost at places by assuming I could read all the Ruby code. Ruby for Rails does an excellent job of introducing the two topics together, making it the best intro I've found for someone new to both Ruby and Rails.

It is perfect for those who have worked through the examples in <a href="http://www.pragmaticprogrammer.com/titles/rails/index.html" rel="nofollow">Agile...</a> and developed a taste for rails but have not yet acquired the knowledge of ruby to cope in the wild. The examples are extremely clear and well thought out. I have found a lot of the concepts I struggled with in <a href="http://www.pragmaticprogrammer.com/titles/ruby/index.html" rel="nofollow">The pickaxe</a> just fall into place when Black explains them. I bought the e-book when it was in beta and it became a constant companion so added the paper one as soon as it came out. This is an excellent book.
