Right. You might want to look at Chap 15 in "The Rails Way", Obie Fernandez et.al., 2008. It covers XML and ActiveResource - only 27 pages but the best I've been able to find to date. I'm assuming that what you mean by "complex relationships" is the A...Resource parallel to associations in A...Record. If not, clue me in with more details.
