Hi all,
I am in the process of learning rails, and so far I've relied on "Agile Web Development with Rails" and "Rails Recipes". I've noticed there are are couple of more advanced rails books on amazon, and many seem to cover similar topics. Can anyone shed some light on how they stack up? Any particular recommendations?
Thanks!
Bob
The Rails Way is probably the place to go next.
Ruby for Rails is a nice book to help you build your Ruby skills though it may be a little outdated… it’s still an awesome book.
Get "The Rails Way".
Only one word comes to mind after having read this book, "coverage".

For me it was "hernia". 
But it is worth the weight.
Try and think of it as "web developer" exercise, a book that is both
for the mind and the body 
Thanks for all the input. I'll give it a shot.
I also bought The Rails Way a few weeks ago and find it a great complement to AWDR. The only deficiency I've found is that the index is pretty sparse. But I've found it to be the kind of book where you're more likely to find what you need from the ToC.
Hmm, I guess that wouldn't be too big of a problem. Thanks for the info
