This may not be totally relevant, but I recently came across this link and thought it was pretty cool. It might be a good place to start. It's an interactive Ruby tutorial.

If you don't want to be connected to the net, I believe there is a copy with the Windows Ruby Distro inside the docs folder. However, if you do get a book, I recommend "Ruby in a Nutshell". It's pretty good, Matz (the guy that made ruby) wrote it himself.
