老外Wesley J. Chun列出了三个值得学习的Python读物清单，分别面向不同的读者群。
群1：Python程序员

One of the most popular Python books has been Dive into Python. Originally published in 2004, a new version for Python 3 was published in 2009. For developers who prefer to learn by just diving into code, this is one of your top choices, even more so since the author is one of my co-workers! However, if you prefer to learn a lot more before venturing into programming, there are other options for you..
2、Core Python Programming by Wesley Chun, Prentice Hall, 2006

Core Python Programming is pretty much the opposite of Dive into Python. Instead of a "quick dive," I would call it a deep dive into the Python language. The goal of this book is to teach you Python as quickly but as comprehensively as possible. There are plenty of code samples to look at and try during your reading, so you don't have to read that much before getting started. Even better are the exercises at the end of every chapter to help you put what you learned into practice. Furthermore, a healthy dose of charts and tables provides reference material for readers. In 2009, I added two new appendices on Python 2.6 (also applicable for 2.7) and 3.x to keep the book contemporary. These appendices are available in the 5th and newer printings. All other readers can download both appendices as well as a cleaned up index on the book's Web site at corepython.com.
3、The Quick Python Book second edition by Vern Ceder, Manning, 2010

The Quick Python Book is similar to Dive into Python, but originally published well before the latter except that it goes into a bit more detail than Dive. Its reviews are just as good as its newer brother. A few years ago, it was updated to Python 3.
4、Beginning Python: From Novice to Professional second edition by Magnus Lie Hetland, Apress, 2008

The Beginning Python book also goes more into detail than Apress' fellow book, Dive into Python. It is very readable and user-friendly; however, like the Quick Python Book, it doesn't dive in as deeply as Core Python Programming. It's just right in the middle and thus could be your cup of tea. There's even a companion Web site for the book.
5、Learn Python the Hard Way second edition by Zed Shaw, 2011

This self-published series takes a completely different approach: the author forces you to code and code correctly, then explains what you did and why. But since you already had to experience it, you pick up programming skills more quickly. This book is also suitable for those who have never programmed before, and is "brutally-friendly" for these readers.
