Beginner python book

This book is great for those just starting out in programming and provides a very solid foundation on some of the most important aspects of python. I would love to see another book in similar fashion covering other aspects such as graphics. Quick short and to the point!

Nice introduction to the basics or a quick review.

This is a nice way to quickly learn the core syntax and grammar of Python, or a quick review.
Of course the real power of Python is the rich libraries and modules available for everything from simple I/O to AI analytics.

Good for a quick introduction. Will probably need a more in depth work after, but well done. recommended for beginners and amateurs.

Easy to read and follow. Covers the basics very well.

I've programmed before, so have a different perspective to a programming newbie. However, it might still be suitable for someone who hasn't programmed before.

Good book. Met my expectations.
