There are SO many - and on separate topics too! You might like the reviews by Andrew: http://www.amk.ca/python/books
For easy access, basics you might like Guido's tutorial: http://www.python.org/doc/2.5.2/tut/tut.html Also, check out the online book at http://diveintopython.org For a list of books (gack!) you could start at http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonBooks and http://www.python.org/doc/ I have never been able to settle on "the one" myself.
