This is normal behavior
With the ruby script/server command you actually started a web server process.
Now that process is holding your console (the Windows 7 cmd)
So you should start a new console and you can type all others commands. In the 
first console, you can watch the result of the server operations

by the way, this book is excellent !!

good luck
