This is a very well written book on using the Rails MVC model and AJAX (or more precisely [AS]|[JFV] A [XHJ]) technology to quickly get cool websites up and running on rails. As a programmer, I felt it did a good job of showing you what's happening under the hood, why you wouldn't want to write it yourself for a big website, and how AJAX and Rails can help you get powerfully scripted content attached to the DB your boss likes with a minimum of typing and fuss.
