Start with: http://www.amazon.com/Rails-Way-Addison-Wesley-Professional-...

Look up some examples here: http://www.pragprog.com/titles/rails2

Once you have something worth of deploying, follow this: http://www.pragprog.com/titles/fr_deploy

I second the Rails Way book , its a great book thats easy to follow and organized. For learning Ruby I found http://www.amazon.com/Ruby-Programming-Language-David-Flanag... to be great

There's alotta rails books coming out, see amazon. This list is not up to date, either:

http://antoniocangiano.com/rails-books/

I recommend, in addition to the 2 lists, Ediger's "Advanced Rails", Rappin's "Professional Rails", and Ezra Z/Pragmatic's "Deploying Rails" . Haven't seen AWDWR vers. 3 beta, but Pragmatic's betas are usually worth reading after the first revision or 2
