 From the site headings: "Dive Into Python is a Python book for experienced  
programmers."
The style is very clear and comprehensible - even for *non* programmers.  
The book is up-to-date to Python 2.3, describing generators by example,  
that were added on that release.
After reading it, anyone should be able to grasp the newer features by  
himself.
