I've read McGugan's Beginning PyGame book, and it does a fairly nice job introducing Python in general (I think the first 2 chapters do this). If you're wanting to learn Pygame it's a Great book. If you're just learning python, it will be useful, but definitely not your only resource. > P.S. Do not try to use pygame without having learned > to program using Python alone first. I actually learned python because of pygame, and I DID use pygame with no prior python experience (though I had a LOT of programming experience in languages like C, Java, PHP... etc), so it CAN be done. Having said that, I heartily suggest you do some other stuff with python and then come back to pygame. IMHO, it will make your pygame experience more enjoyable. I think the python tutorial is a really good place to start: http://docs.python.org/tut/tut.html
