Yuk, a double negative, sorry. 
That should of course say:

Tkinter has hardly changed at all.

Hopefully that was obvious from my subsequent comments!

Tkinter has not changed hardly at all.
The only shame about the book is that it strongly features the Python
MegaWidgets add-on library whereas it was Tix that was adoptted
in the standard library, and there is no coverage of Tix at all.
(Time for a second edition Manning?)

However the book is not really a beginners book in Tkinter, you
should do Fred Lundh's intro tutorial first, but it is good on more
advanced topics and as a reference book.

Danny, "Python and Tkinter Programming" is still in its first 
edition, which came out in 2000. Python has changed a lot since then. 
Hasn't Tkinter? Is the book still usable by a Tkinter beginner?
