“Many people have dug into the Ruby source code, but few make it back

out and tell the tale as elegantly as Pat does in Ruby Under a Microscope !

I particularly love the diagrams—and there are lots of them—as they

make many opaque implementation topics a lot easier to understand,

especially when coupled with Pat’s gentle narrative. This book is a delight

for language implementation geeks and Rubyists with a penchant for dig-

ging into the guts of their tools.”

—P eter C ooPer (@ PeterC ), e ditor of R uby I nsIde and R uby W eekly

“Man, this book was missing in the Ruby landscape—awesome content.”

“Pat Shaughnessy did a tremendous job writing THE book about Ruby

internals. Deinitely a must read—you won’t ind information like this

anywhere else.”

“I really enjoyed the book and now have a far better understanding of both

Ruby and CS. The writing made very complex topics (at least for me) very

accessible, and I found the book hard to put down. Diagrams were awesome

and are already popping in my head as I code. This is by far one of my top 3

favourite Ruby books.”

“While I’m not usually digging into Ruby Internals, this book was an

absolutely awesome read.”
