" 1. What are your views about Python vs Perl? Do you see one as better
than the other?"

They are different languages. Perl is very powerfull if you use it
knowing potential problems. Python is definitely much easier to learn
and use.
"2. Is there a good book to start with while learning Python? I'm
currently reading 'Python Essential Reference' by David M. Beazley. So
far it looks like a pretty good book, but would like more tutorials to
work with (I've also been reading through the tutorials at 'python.org'
which has some excellent stuff!)."

I would suggest you to read Dive into Python. Very deep
descriptions.....

 

3. I vote for Emacs :-))
