I am a fairly experienced programmer and I have been reading Dive Into Python. If you have prior experience, you may find it very satisfactory. (But see a recent thread I started which points out a few small mistakes...nothing too bad over all.) If you have less programming experience, you may wish to look at Byte of Python. The great thing about Python is that there is a ton of online material to peruse... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
