About the version of ruby explained

The version of ruby used is ruby (1.7.3 2002-09-12).

It's almost a year before the release of Ruby 1.8.0, so things explained in this book are basically the same in Ruby 1.8.

The details about this version are written in the Introduction

You can download it from the official support site of the book.

It's also available from this Organization's repo at
