Description: This book is an excellent read for someone new to python but with some other programming knowledge. This was my first exposure to Python (coming from PERL) and I found this book very helpful. The author explains things very thoroughly and intuitively. He writes a lot of prose and not just all code examples, but good explanations also. I found myself reading this most times without a computer in front of me. So by the time I actually sat down and dug into the syntax, I was already very familiar with the basic concepts of the language. It touches on most subjects I was looking for. It may not be for the extreme beginner or as the end-all reference for gurus, but for us in between its just whats needed. this is easily one of the better programming books I've read.
