Beginning Python, by Hetland is excellent for almost any level (I think someone who has really mastered one language, and is currently working as a programmer, can simply read Guido's tutorial & use the online docs). Hetland doesn't talk down to beginner, non-programmer types, nor does he hide hard stuff; he makes it accessible. It also talks about how to program in general, how to attack problems, test, have fun.It's well indexed and organized, so it's a good reference for the noob, but as yo gain experience with Python you will migrate to the on-line docs. I have to say, however, that in the first weeks I used the book as a reference more than I used the on-line docs. Diving into Python, by Pilgrim has a lot of respect. It's available on-line http://diveintopython.org/index.html It is a Python book for "experienced programmers." Which, I assume, means experienced non-Python programmers. I learn via immersion research & doing, I've read a lot of computer books, and Hetland's is really quite good. I'll read Pilgrim's book in the near future. In general (with the notable exception of the Plone book) I've found the Apress materials excellent. (Both books happen to be Apress, no I'm not affiliated in any way). --stv _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
