I do not know how much of an abstract learner/thinker you are, but when I learned OOP, a book did not help me at all; I learned it by doing. And in this case I would say the Zope 3 Developers Book is the right thing. It covers all component types in a practical instructional manner. If this is not enough for you, the Zope X3 source code has some really great README.txt files that point out subtleties and corner cases.
