Is there a bible like Larry Wall's Programming Perl or Bjarne Stroustrup's
The C++ Programming Language?

Can someone kindly recommend some good books on the following:

Ruby for beginners

-> Why's Poignant Guide
-> Humble Little Ruby Book
-> Learn To Code

Ruby for advanced users

-> Ruby Source Code
-> The Pickaxe
-> The Ruby Way

Ruby On Rails for beginners

-> Build Your Own Ruby On Rails Apps (Patrick Lentz)
-> There are only three days left to get it in PDF form for free (I
like print, though)!

sorts.html

That pretty much has it all!

The only ritualistically used book I know of is the Pickaxe, put out
by the Pragmatic Programmers.

Ruby for beginners

For experienced programmers wanting to work in Ruby, I found
"Programming Ruby" both comprehensible and comprehensive. For
beginning programmers, I don't know.

Ruby for advanced users

Programming Ruby, 2nd Edition, chapters 22-24.

Ruby On Rails for beginners
Ruby On Rails for advanced users

Agile Web Development With Rails for both.

Ruby for beginners

For absolute beginners to programming (even kids), "Learn to Program" by
Chris Pine is a very gentle introduction to Ruby.

Also for beginners, I am find "Beginning Ruby, From Novice to
Professional" by Peter Cooper very approachable but it also covers a lot
of ground.
