No. There are a number of good books on Python programming in general and those should get you going on the Python side. For the most part Python on the mac is just like Python on other unixy platforms.

I know of no books that deal with mac-specific issues (like applescript and Cocoa) from the Python perspective, but that shouldn't be a problem unless you want to use mac-specific technologies. W.r.t. applescript: appscript is very useful and has good documentation. W.r.t. Cocoa: PyObjC does not have extensive documentation, but it should be easy enough learn just enough Objective-C to learn about Cocoa from the myriad of Objective-C Cocoa books.
