Agile Web Development with Rails - 2nd Ed

I picked up the book by Dave Thomas snd David Heinemeier Hansson(Rail's creator) - Agile Web Development with Rails - 2nd Edition today. I plan to review the book while I am reading it. I am a slow reader, so yes it will take me longer to finish the book :).

So, I just finished reading the "Introduction" part of the book. And the thing I like about the book already that it uses shorter sentences to deliver an idea. I have found it always works effectively with me when the writer is using short sentences instead of long ones. With long sentences, I somehow forget what I was reading in the beginning of the sentence when I am at the tail end of it and end up having to read it once again. So to me, it is a great art when the writer uses short concise meaningful sentences in his/her book.

Allright, I am going to review the Ruby Language in Appendix A before installing the rails.

Little trivia: 5:30 in the morning - and the weather is just fantastic outside - perfect spring night. It just rained a bit a little ago. And I so feel like taking a quick puff - shame I know - if only I could control and then totally overcome all my weaknesses. Sighs.
