Learning Python using a book based on version 1.5

[dogatemycomputer at gmail.com]

Greetings,

A friend of mine dropped off a copy of Sams Teach Yourself Python in
24 Hours published in 2000.  I skimmed the first couple of chapters
looking for the interpreter version and the book was based on version
Python version 1.5.

Is this book still relevant?   Should I toss it and look for something
newer?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Best Regards,
Dave
