Everyone in the Ruby world seems to be talking about metaprogramming--how you can use it to remove duplication in your code and write elegant, beautiful programs. Now you can get in on the action as well.

Learning metaprogramming doesn't have to be difficult or boring. By taking you on a Monday-through-Friday workweek adventure with a pair of programmers, Paolo Perrotta helps make mastering the art of metaprogramming both straightforward and entertaining.
The book is packed with:

Customer Reviews
One thing I loved about this book is the number of examples taken from active open-source projects. I think this is a *great* idea as it invites the reader to download the code from those libraries and see how metaprogrammig is used in the wild.
I think this is an excellent book for someone who has little or no background about the metaprogramming features of ruby.
Just like many collegues and friends of mine i haven't bought a paper book sice a long time but i really recommend it to all of you interested into Ruby and metaprogramming techniques.
It's also a funny book and you'll never get bored.
If you think this review to be more suitable to a novel instead of an IT book than you can understand it's a "must have" :)
