Hope you are doing well! Python Essential Reference, 3rd Edition, is a

new library modules added to the language over the past five years. Clearly
written with concise organization, the new features covered include new
style classes, unification of types and classes, xmlrpclip, intertools, bz2
and optparse, making it the most up-to-date Python book on the market. 

 

Author David Beazley is a developer of several software development tools
including SWIG (a popular tool for integrating C/C++ programs with other
programming languages including Python, Perl, Tcl, Ruby, PHP, Java) and PLY)
a Python version of the lex/yacc parsing tools). Beazley has been
programming Python since 1996 and helped pioneer the use of Python with
scientific computing software while working at Los Alamos National
Laboratory. From 1998-2005 he was assistant professor in the Department of
computer Science at the University of Chicago where he enjoyed tormenting
students with insane projects in operating systems, networks, and compilers.
Currently he is a freelance software developer.
