Beginning Python: From Novice to Professional

Mangnus Hetland's book was my intro to the python world. He strikes a balance between being tutorial for a programmer with shaky feet to being empowering by giving insights into software development ideas for bigger projects. Speaking of those, not only does he enrich the book with a tour of the object oriented and pattern filled language. To show these pieces in practice, he offers multiple practical project pieces (parsing markups like html/xml, building GUIs, erecting a web service) that make a rookie feel good to see working. And he does so with iterative programming, showing a simple implementation and then a more filled in one, as is natural for a programmer to go through without feeling overwhelmed. Throughout the book he throws all sorts of wisdom from the various hats that he wears, (teacher, developer and Pythonista...). I credit a lot to him the scripts I have running on production servers.
