Excellent primer on Python - [07 May 2009]
Compared to other Python guides I have used this one is the best. As always, O'Reilly has produced a great guide that can be approached either as a starting manual or an in-depth technical manual and reference. Although my time devoted to it has been ...

Strong book for Learning Python - [15 Feb 2009]
Overall, I think this is a very good book for learning Python. I'm an expert C/C++ programmer and found that the book was well written and seems to do a good job of bringing people up to speed on Python whether they were relatively new to programming ...

Doesn't deserve the title Learning Python like Learning Perl does - [23 Jan 2009]
I'm disappointed in this book; I'm at page 128, and I am still not learning any other python than one or two line commands. I had expected something like Learning Perl: right from the start, that Perl book contains small, 5 to 15 line programs from which...

Terrible Book for Python - [16 Jan 2009]
I was sorely disappointed by this book. I normally love O'Reilly books and was very glad to see that they had make a beginners book for Python; but this book is just terrible. Like others have said, its very very wordy, repeating even the most simplistic...

Is this really from O'Reilly? - [05 Jan 2009]
This is the first O'Reilly book that I will say that I regret purchasing. Coming from Perl and now trying to see what the hype with Python is about. I know Java as well as C++, so I understand OO and all it is supposed to do. So far I am on page 200 and...

Wordy - [31 Dec 2008]
This book should be called "Learning Python for people who have never programmed before". The author states in the preface that no assumptions have been made about the reader's programming background. I think that this is why this book is so wordy. Amazon...

Comprehensive but rather wordy - [15 Dec 2008]
I have learned Python through this book, but to be honest, it wasn't very pleasant (although that's mostly because I was impatient). The book is comprehensive, but it's rather wordy. The two combined mean that it becomes one really huge book. Due to the...
