It's a book you can read in one day. The downside is the use of Python 2. Many features have changed and if you run the code in Python 3, you'll get a few headaches. I think it's still a recommendable introduction to Python because it's short.

حليل وأدى المطلوب. أتوقع أقدر أرجع لأكواد البايثون اللي كتبتها من ٧ سنين وأستوعبها لول

It is very good book! Clear and concise! It's a small book, but covers core python syntax and semantics

Especially I enjoyed following contents.

* Object protocol
* Namespace
* Implementing BeanRepository using container protocol was small but very good trick
 * Why I never thought to repositories as Map all these days?
* Python parser executing order 

Only disappointment was it could have covered a bit of meta-programming and it's pattern!

I would recommend this book to all java developers, who would like to work in python!

A good concise introduction for experience developers

This is a concise introduction to python from a java programmer’s perspective. It is good to allow one into the python world quickly but it is only an introduction
