Re:My Suggestions - Good Python Book (Score 1)

I agree the the oreilly books are good - Python in a nutshell is wicked for learning the language if you can program, so will probably be great for someone teaching it. for the beginner howerver i think you might find Mark Pilgrim's free book 'Dive Into Python' (http://diveintopython.org/) good - it solves a bunch of interesting problems, and does it in a hands on 'how to program suchand such ' rather trying to be as complete and scientific all at once.
