The STL and the template feature of C++ gives the programmer some of the functionality of Python (using templates instead of duck typing, vectors instead of lists etc.), so a book that introduces these features early, such as "Accelerated C++" by Koenig and Moo, could be a good start for a Pythonner. The 4th edition of the well-known "C++ Primer", with Moo as a new co-author, will soon be published. It is a more comprehensive and much longer book. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
