Reviews
"Python is a programming language, but it is also fun to play with. This book recognizes that." -- Geek Tech Stuff, "Python is a programming language, but it is also fun to play with. This book recognizes that." --Geek Tech Stuff "Rather than being an introductory text, Vaughan's book pushes you in interesting directions for solving a diverse set of problems. Most of these "impractical" projects, while themselves being not so useless after all, will have parallels to real life projects." --Greg Laden, Greg Laden's Blog "The book is not a Python tutorial or guide. Instead, it presents stimulating coding projects for non-programmers who want to use Python for doing experiments, test theories, or simulate natural phenomena." --Paolo Amoroso, Moonshots Beyond the Cloud Blog "A must have second book for every developer that ever wants to learn Python as a language." --Ian Mizer, Atlanta Python Programmers Group "The writing is excellent . . . Every project is accessible and has enough explanation to motivate coding." --Ravi Srinivasan, Playful Python

    Seller responded quickly to all questions, but it took a week to ship and another 10 days for delivery. The item matches the description, so if shipping time is not critical, this seller can be recommended.

    The book was competitively priced, ordering was easy, the book was well packaged and arrived safely, and its condition was exactly as specified.The delivery time from ordering to mailbox was a little long (14 days), but overall it was a good experience and I would use this seller again.

    The condition and value of the book are 100% wonderful. My only disappointment was with the shipping process , the item was only shipped after I conveyed my displeasure that the book did not leave their facility for a week. They were unapologetic, by the time I told them to cancel the order, they informed me that it was on it's way, but shipping information did not support it.
