super() woes (n00b)

[Deadly Dirk]

I cannot get right the super() function:
Python 3.1.1+ (r311:74480, Nov  2 2009, 14:49:22) 
[GCC 4.4.1] on linux2
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license()" for more information.
==== No Subprocess ====
>>> class P:
    def __init__(__class__,self):
        print("I am a member of class P")

        
>>> class C(P):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(self)
        print("I am a member of class C")

        

class P:
    def __init__(self):
        print("I am a member of class P")

class C(P):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(self)
        print("I am a member of class C")

x=C()

That is more or less the text from the "Quick Python Book". What am I 
doing wrong?
