I am aware of no NR code in Scipy.
References to the book in the documentation are indeed meant to be
educational and do not signify that the algorithms are implemented using
code from the book.
The review in 2008 checked all parts of the code where NR was
referenced, and did not appear to have found any NR code or NR code
translated/obfuscated to Python. Code in one routine was found to have
some similarities in structure and was replaced with a reimplementation.
