Why do you need the documentation ? Just fire up your python shell and 
hack a Q&D example:

Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, May  2 2007, 16:56:35)
[GCC 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4)] on linux2

 >>> class Foo(object):
...     def bar(self):
...             print "in %s bar" % self
...
 >>> f = Foo()
 >>> Foo.bar(f)
in <__main__.Foo object at 0xb7dccd2c> bar
 >>> f.bar()
in <__main__.Foo object at 0xb7dccd2c> bar
 >>>
