However, most tutorials (including mine) teach the basic syntax and usage of OOP so I'm not sure what extra information you need. It may e that a basic OOP text would be better - something like Timothy Budd's excellent intro(which uses Java) or even "UML Distilled" by Fowler which uses the UML design language. These both show how classes and objects should be used rather than just focussing on the syntax. As for GUI programming, if we assume you stick with Tkinter for now as it comes with Python and, although limited, is easy to learn, there are several options. The Tkinter page in the official documentation gives several online links. For books there are a few. The massive "Programming Python" tome by Lutz has about 400 pages dedicated to Tkinter. My own books(and web tutor) both have a (much shorter) chapter on it. Several other tutorials cover it too: Python, How to program by Dietel Teach Yourself Python in 24 hours and, if you can find it, Python & Tkinter programming by Grayson goes into great detail.
