Thanks for the kind words, but as you know my book is strictly
an introduction.

My curent "next steps" book recommendations are:

Either of:
Python in a Nutshell - O'Reilly
Python Essential Reference - New riders

Optionally:
Programming Python 2nd edition - O'Reilly (big!)

and if on a Windows box:
Python Programming on Win32 - O'Reilly
