Core Python programming

[Keith Woeltje]

Raphael,
To answer the question you asked, Core Python covers Python through 2.0. 
  I'm currently reading through it, and think it really is a good book. 
I like an honest-to-goodness dead-tree document for reading, and Chun 
does a nice job in teaching most of the features. You can always pick up 
the newer stuff later from the on-line documentation.
HTH,

PS--the Beasley book is an excellent reference, but unless you are 
already a skilled programmer, I wouldn't try to learn from it.
