Hi, I would recommend Agile Web Development with Rails 3rd Edition as a starting point. At this time, you can obtain the PDF at the following location: http://www.pragprog.com/titles/rails3/agile-web-development-with-rails-third-edition You should at least complete the construction of the demo application. In addition to the above book, I would also recommend the following as well: "Simply Rails 2" by Patrick Lenz - a very good first book on learning Rails 2.0 "The Rails Way" by Obie Fernandez - an excellent reference on Rails 2.0 but I'm looking forward to an update covering Rails 2.2 "Advanced Rails Recipes" by Mike Clark and the Rails community - an excellent cookbook (i.e. problem/solution format) Lastly, you have the people here to assist you along the way.
