If you are getting started with Python (like me) - then this IS the book for u. Although nothing can beat the python manual, but this book brings in what the python manual doesnt - the experience of people who wrote it.The authors have used clear and lucid language with precise examples at places where they really matter. There's no "extra fat" anywhere.

The end effect has been that so far, i have been using Perl for most of my admin scripting tasks (on both, Windows and *NIX), but now the next ones will be slowly and steadily in Python.

Good job done guys ! En core !
