More helpful than this would be a response to the actual question, which was what version of Django is covered in the book, and how much content in it is outdated. The original poster didn't ask for a book critique. A critique that included some reasons for your assessment might be helpful, but this critique is useless. Without any reasons for your assessment I'm left to assume it just wasn't what you were looking for. It may well, however, be what the original poster is looking for. I don't have the book. Based on the publication date, though, and comments on the Amazon page for it, it appears to cover Django 1.0. Thus it won't cover any of the new features introduced in 1.1 and (soon) 1.2. Also depending on how much it gets into detailed internals, some things may have changed. But I'd expect a good bit of it is still quite valid and useful.
