The second book has just been reissued (Third Edition) to take into 
account the last iteration of Rails handling of Web page "skeleton" 
code.  I just got notice that they are "about to" ship my copy.  The 
current version of Rails breaks the example code provided in Agile 
Web Development with Rails, First and Second Editions.

Be sure to get the Third Edition - check with Pragmatic Programmers 
for availability - if you order from them you can download the final 
text in PDF while awaiting delivery.

P.S. Don't blame them for the incompatibility, Ruby on Rails is a 
rapidly evolving project and supports legacy releases, but any work 
on Web Planner should exploit the bleeding edge of Rails.
