I think the tkInter book is the single best book on programming
technique I've ever read - I enjoyed it immensely, and learned
a lot of it, even though I'll _never_ use the tkInter widget set.

I much prefer PyQt, which is now not only available for Unix/X11, but
also for Windows - for free! (http://www.thekompany.com/projects/pykde).
