Enterprise Rails

Dear reader,

To help spread the word, I am posting the full text of Enterprise Rails online. I hope the examples in this book help you to write better code and build a successful enterprise-scale web application. If you think Enterprise Rails would be useful to have on your bookshelf, use the link to the right to get a hardcopy.

Sincerely,
