I have a lot of experience on the front-end but had only dabbled on the back-end. I did have basic Ruby and Rails experience but nothing major. I really wanted to learn my way around Rails but also understand how and why things worked the way they did. This book really helped to answer those questions.The first few chapters were a bit difficult to get through primarily because it was very basic information (configuration, Rails routing, REST, etc.). After that, it got really exciting (for me) as it dove into the specifics of the framework.I highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to learn more about Rails and I think it's suitable for almost any experience level. There are certain topics that were too complex for me to understand in the context of the book, so I used a flashcard as my bookmark and wrote down any concepts that were difficult. Googling it and rereading that section of the book really helped get the point across.If I had to pick one negative about the book, it would be that it is opinionated as far as configuration. This can be assumed, though, because it is documenting the Rails Way. For instance, Haml and Rspec are used extensively over ERb and TestUnit. I had no experience with these prior to the book, but was excited to learn about them because they do seem to be the go-to libraries for big Rails shops (Hashrocket, Thoughtbot, etc.)Overall, 5/5. I've read it once and picked up a lot of knowledge. I plan to use it extensively and re-read sections as needed when an issue arises. If you're a complete beginner, I'd start off with the Hartl tutorial and then go through this book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for someone with existing background knowledge in Rails or at least competing MVC web frameworks *by P***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2015* This is a great overall book to talk about the mechanics of rails. It is not setup to be a tutorial for a brand new beginner, but rather a more in-depth look at each of the concepts within rails. If you are a beginner, buy this book along with another beginner book to get started (or supplement with online tutorials). ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Good Reference *by D***. on Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2015* The book is quite good but definitely, as someone said, not a beginners book. You need to be well along your way to really utilize it. As such, it makes a very good reference. The book is very comprehensive but I would say, if your needs are a little more fundamental and you need to be taken through some of the basics in a comprehensive way, Michael Hartl's book does that very, very well - and he's got a real good writing style.My complaint with the book is that the paper used for the book must be about a 12lb bond. It's about as thin as you can get without actually being into something else, like wrapping tissue. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/2741449-the-rails-4-way-addison-wesley-professional-ruby-3rd-edition](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/2741449-the-rails-4-way-addison-wesley-professional-ruby-3rd-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-06-02*
