Beginning Python_ From Novice to Professional, Second Edition

'This book is pretty well written and easy to understand. The first few chapters seem really analogous to the MIT OCW beginning Python course. My main issue with the book is that it is supposed to cover Python 3. The author states that the Python 2 syntax is nearly identical to Python 3 and that where it is different in the book he will make note of it. However, there are several examples that will give errors in Python 3 that are not noted by the author.
