Last Fall I bought Agile Web Development with Rails (http://pragprog.com/titles/rails3/agile-web-development-with...) and found it to be very helpful in transitioning from .Net to Rails. Based on how you describe your experience, you would do fine with this book.

There are a few more basic books, however, I didn't want to read 500 pages just to learn how to build a blog.

I also recommend watching some of the Peep Code videos as they go more into depth on specific topics.

Thanks. This looks great. It's exactly the sort of thing I am looking for as I too don't want waste time re-learning the basics!
