Re: Book recommendation? For getting up to date

I'm looking for a book that would teach me the lastest and greatest parts of

I've looked at python.org and pythonbooks.org but I couldn't decide which one 
to get.

I used to be fairly good at Python, but I haven't done any serious programming 
in the last 10 years or so. So I would like something that got me up-to-date 
with the latest features.

Great question.  But also not a simple question.

Great new promising developments are not only happening in core Python 
libraries, but also in some great external libraries, most targeted for 
ML/data science things.


Recently I re-ordered my collection on open access Python Book. I also 
was, and still am, searching for good quality books for 'professionals' 
that cover the latest developments good.


I tried to create an hard copy of parts of the Python documentation. 
E.g. to study on paper some exiting new things that are created in 
Python 3.13 like CPython’s global interpreter lock (“GIL”) changes. But 
the PDF was over 3000 pages, so not practical for creating a hard copy 
version.


Modern Python parts should imho cover changes  to libraries and give 
good guidance on how to really use the latest PEPs. Things like handling 
Hatch (the new tool for packaging), when to use latest options in the 
Pandas library (and NOT)  should minimal be covered if you want to do 
Python today.


My current best collection for online quality open access Python Books 
is on: 
https://nocomplexity.com/documents/pythonbook/generatedfiles/overview.html#books 



Some of these books can be ordered as hard copy.
