Yes, it's a quality book, IMO.

I hope by now you've gotten over your dislike for online tutorials.
Please take a look at these 3:
Hands-On Python <http://www.cs.luc.edu/~anh/python/han...
How to Think Like a (Python) Programmer
<http://www.greenteapress.com/thinkp...
Alan Gauld's Learning to Program (heavy emphasis on Python)
<http://www.freenetpages.co.uk/hp/alan...

Also, do take advantage of the VERY helpful Tutor mailing list.

I like the farting one.

For some reason it enrages non-Iphone users the most.

Megatouch has Monkey Bash, Lucky 11s, Photo Hunt.

Wasting most of my time playing Atari Centipede.

Genius scan has been very handy.
