Hi everyone, Last year, I was lucky enough to sign a book deal with The Pragmatic Bookshelf to write an intermediate level book on Python. (The Pragmatic Bookshelf is the publishing company founded by the authors of one of my favorite programming books: The Pragmatic Programmer.) Having written Python most of my professional career, I wanted a resource that I could give to engineers who might have deeper experience in some language that wasn't necessarily Python. I wanted to help teammates newer to Python quickly discover its virtues (and limitations). I think there are tremendous Python resources available online, but wanted to capture another perspective to help teammates level up their skills. The book ("Intuitive Python: Productive Development for Projects that Last") went through a beta release this spring, and was officially released this month. It's available (including a few free sections) here: https://pragprog.com/titles/dmpython/intuitive-python/ https://pragprog.com/titles/dmpython/intuitive-python/ In case anyone is thinking of becoming an author with the The Pragmatic Bookshelf, I'd be happy to share my thoughts about the publishing experience there (spoiler: I had a positive experience). I'm proud to have released this book, and excited to share it here. Thanks! -David
