Hello Naomi,

I am coder for long time & know basic python. Python is very popular at the moment with ton of free material & paid video courses online. How does your book help web developers who wants to learn & use python for web development? I understand your book is not about python frameworks.

Thanks,
Kavin

That's an interesting question. I'd also admit that my book doesn't really focus on web development.

What I would say is that with all of the resources out there it can be tough to know what's quality. The Quick Python Book has been well reviewed from the beginning and in much the same form since the 2nd edition. So there's that testimony that it's a good resource.

The other thing is that it while it covers pretty much all of Python, it focuses on what you need to know as a developer, and has always gotten good reviews for that focus.

So I know there is a lot of stuff out there, but I think the Quick Python Book has sort of stood the test of time as being a quality resource that covers a lot of ground, while still keeping focus on what a developer needs. :-)
