Review: Just buy it! - This is by far the best companion for a Python (3) developer. It contains so much recipes and so much advice that using it it's just a pleasure. You are able to produce super elegant code, minimising the lines of code and maximising the code readability. I suggest it to everybody is already a bit proficient in Python and just wants to acquire more immediate and elegant way of coding. Let's say this is a book for who really wants to produce beautiful pythonic code.
Review: Amazing source - Being honest from all the programming books I've got O'Reilly books are the best. Always advanced level information yet you never feel troubled as a beginner. Most books on the market are targeting the quick corner fast track students, but O'Reilly books are more suitable if you want to be Senior dev in the future you should definetely purchase all related programming books with O'Reilly and absorbe all you can. The only thing I wish that they didn't use a rat as cover to their python books. That cover gives me creep, otherwise I would add them to my basket without thinking :)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for converting to Python
*by D***N on 27 June 2013*

This is another cook book of code snippets and explanations and covers Python 3 in this third edition. The book is structured in sections starting with the basic language constructs (variables, functions and so on), before getting into more detailed examples on classes, networking, Internet, concurrency and a good section on testing and debugging (all code must be well documented). As someone converting from PHP this has been a revelation in that each section of code snippets has a 'discussion' section to explain the 'why' as wel as the 'how. Other books tell you what/how but rarely the 'why' as this does. Recommended. As it is a cook book, it's not been read cover to cover but the possibility is there.
