"Learning Python" is the best one I've seen. There will be a Sams "Teach
Yourself Python" book (which may be better, dunno). And if I ever get the
book proposal finished <cough>, there may be a "Python for Dummies" soon.
:)
I'm not really fond of "Programming Python."
My favorite Python book and the one I used for learning (since it was
relevant) is "Internet Programming with Python" but that's out of print.
New on the shelves is a python reference book from New Riders that's very
good. It's like O'Reilly's Python Pocket Reference on steroids. Both of
them are the books I most frequently refer to (as I prefer my reference
documentation in hardcopy).
