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.
