Ruby on Rails 3 Tutorial by Michael Hartl and skip Chapter 4 "Rails-Flavored Ruby". This book is a good starting book and may be enough depending on what you want. Also the newest edition of "Agile Web Development with Rails". If you need to get into heavy duty Rails, add "The Rails 3 Way". These last two reccomendations are based on my reading earlier editions. "The Rails Way" had no Ruby sections. AWDR 1st edition had an appendix on Ruby.
