Michael Slater, President of Collective Knowledge Works Inc, had comment on the book:

This is an outstanding book. It’s not a good introduction to Rails, which it isn’t intended to be, but for someone who knows the basics of Rails this book is both an essential reference and a valuable tutorial on the deeper aspects of Rails. Despite the fact that it is, at its heart, a reference, there’s so much insight in the descriptions that it’s a great tutorial as well for the intermediate Rails developer.
