Well, well - and nobody mentioned an online tutorial (if I'm not wrong). What a shame :-). If you feel new to all this, then first go to this page: http://www.python.org/doc/2.4.1/ then locate the Tutorial and give it a try. Maybe it is not very complete and leaves some subjects in the dark, but after reading it you should improve your ability to choose the right printed book from your local store (or wherever you look for new books). After reading the Tutorial, I would start a decent text editor, and pointed it to my local Python install files, like /usr/local/lib/python2.4/ and checked if any *.py file made any sense to me. This would give me some hints about how much I need to learn and on what level.
