Plus he's a genuinely good guy, a pleasure to be around. And I swear he never sleeps, given all that he gets done.
I just wanted to make sure to point out I was just one of five authors on the book. The others were Tom Enebo, Nick Sieger, Ola Bini, and our fantastic lead author Ian Dees, without whom there would be no book at all. They deserve as much (or more) credit for the book as I do.
And thanks for the kind words :) I hope folks will enjoy the book and JRuby alike.

Why is orielly selling pragprog books?
From Pragprog's contact page[1]:
> Our paperback titles are distributed to retail bookstores by O’Reilly Media, and are stocked and shipped by Ingram Publisher Services. Please contact Ingram or O’Reilly to order. If you have any difficulty obtaining a paperback title, please email us at [email protected].
There must be some similar deal with NoStarch since their books also appear on O'Reilly's site.
That said, I still somehow wish the main link here were to Pragprog's page.

And it looks like this one has not landed in O'Reilly's Safari (not yet, at least).
Reseller agreement I guess ? I seem to remember it's been that way for a while already.
Congrats to Headius for the book release and thanks for providing an impeccable example of programming excellence to aspire to.
