I wouldn't use it as a stats book. The coverage is very spotty and seems a bit old fashioned. Lots of different test statistics, not too much intuition from what I could see, and too little coverage of most things to be useful (ie the bootstrap gets a few paragraphs, Bayesian stats gets just a little more, etc). I don't know of good stats books focusing on Python, but I'm sure there are plenty. "An Introduction to Statistical Learning" is free online [1] but it emphasizes R and has very little overlap, so I don't know if it addresses your needs, but it's very good. 1: http://www-bcf.usc.edu/~gareth/ISL/ http://www-bcf.usc.edu/~gareth/ISL/
