Everyday Scripting: Great introduction to Ruby

Scott Schram reviews Everyday Scripting in Ruby on O’Reilly:

This book teaches modern programming techniques that assist in managing complexity, such as test-driven development, “borrowing other people’s work in bits in pieces, growing programs gradually, and constantly keeping them clean.”

“Everyday Scripting With Ruby” is well organized and well written. It’s a very easy read, and a great introduction to Ruby and scripting.
