Hi --
I'm very pleased to announce the appearance of the Addison-Wesley "short cut" (PDF/electronic book), "Rails Routing", written by me. You can get more information and order "Rails Routing" at: http://safari.awprofessional.com/9780321509246
The book includes coverage of:
* The basic workings of the routing system * Custom routes * Named routes * RESTful routing * Testing routes * Examining routes in the console and with plugins
Reviewer Tim Kuntz says:
David A. Black, also the author of "Ruby for Rails", does a masterful job of explaining both the technical details of Rails Routing and the philosophical or conceptual principles behind route creation.

Enjoy!
David
P.S. The review also mentions that the example source code wasn't
available yet, but it's now (re)done (after a disk crash/version
control problem I don't want to talk about and will be made
available by the publisher shortly.
