I keep a copy of "Python In A Nutshell" on my desk at all times. Most of my books are in great shape, but this one is ripped all to hell. The sign of a good book. It covers just about everything, though not all in extreme depth. It's a great book! I've been writing Python for about 4 years now and over the week or so I've caught the "I should know more about the internals" bug. As a result, I've been trying to trace the interpreter from the start of the main function through user code execution. Getting to fully understand the C API and the actual CPython implementation is something I wish I would have done years ago. I'd suggest you do that if you get the chance. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
