The best tool is the one that gets the job done in the most efficient and effective way possible. Many developers are discovering that the best often happens to be Ruby. As the authors of Ruby in Practice observe, by using Ruby you can impress your friends, appease your boss, get work done, have fun, go home early, and have a life.
Ruby in Practice increases your productivity by showing you specific Ruby techniques you can use in your projects. The book offers detailed strategies for using Ruby in a large-scale environment. You’ll see concrete examples of integration, messaging, web development, and databases, all presented in a clear Problem/Solution format. This book won’t help you push your deadline back, but it will help you get the job done in less time.
