Yes its true that most books and web material concentrate on toy material. I guess thats inevitable. I remember one of the CS greats - I think it was Peter Naur - saying that programming pedagogy is too much focused on language and too little on literature. Two books that try to buck this trend a bit come to mind [Ive not checked out either] 1. Expert Python Programming by Tarek Ziade 2. Hacker's guide by Danjou https://julien.danjou.info/books/the-hacker-guide-to-python -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
