This is actually the first book about Python I’ve read even though I’ve used it extensively throughout the years.
My perception that this book proves is that Pythonistas are usually not programmers by trade, they’d come to programming either due to a lucky coincidence or by taking a wrong turn on the road of career hopping.
This book has promised to give a broad look on the Python’s ecosystem, it actually delivers on what it promises. But this look is so shallow that I can’t recommend this book for those who’s willing to get a deep dive into Python on a weekend. The technical details it gives look like author’s waving the hands in the air with no actual proof that I’m used to in Scala and Java books.
Good book, but I can’t recommend it to any professional programmer who’s used to technical/programming/mathematical books.
Score 3/5
