I'm thinking about buying a python book, and this book seemed to be good.
Though, it costs a lot ($30.5 where I want to buy it), at least for me since I don't have a job or anything (I'm still at school:(). Therefore, I'd like to have some opinions about it, in the hope some of you people read it. I read the reviews on amazon etc, and it seems quite nice.
The publisher is O'Reilly (http://www.OReilly.com) who is quite known AFAIK.
Book info:
Learning Python (Help for Programmers) by Mark Lutz
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1565924649/qid=1015875965/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_7_1/002-9716776-0885603
http://oas2000.proxis.be/gate/jabba.coreii.g_p?bi=4&sp=DETAILS&mi=311317&si=25017879
So please, if you've read this book, tell me your opinion because I don't want to spend that much money on a useless book :(
Also, if you don't know the book, but read another python book which you think is good for a total newbie, please tell.
