This is a really good book. I was pleasantly surprised... but not too much, because Mr. Raymond is the best person to write this book. I read his writeup in Linux Journal, and listened to him at RailsConf 2006 and on the Rails Podcast, and he's great. He really knows his stuff.
This book does a great job of covering the basics. It could stand to be a little longer, in my opinion, but it is quite thorough nevertheless. The three application samples in the back are excellent... of course, I came here looking for the code, too, as promised. It's not here.
And that's why the four stars. I'd give it five stars, but having to type in those non-trivial applications myself, just for the learning experience, is quite a frustrating proposition!
But all in all: great book. If you're interested in Ajax and Rails, you gotta pick it up.

Thanks for the feedback! Raymond and Bill, I am sorry that the application downloads aren't on the site yet -- I will work with O'Reilly to make that available ASAP.
