Well, ruby inserts the module into the ancestry between the class that 
includes it and its superclass.  So for example:


julian@[cable]:julian$ cat test.rb
module A
         def foo
                 puts "foo in A"
                 super
         end
end

class B
         def foo
                 puts "foo in B"
         end
end

class C < B
         include A
         def foo
                 puts "foo in C"
                 super
         end
end

C.new.foo

julian@[cable]:julian$ ruby test.rb
foo in C
foo in A
foo in B
