So, who needs this book? In my opinion, it's ideal for students or educators that subscribe to the creativity-oriented Processing philosophy of introductory programming, but who (for whatever reason) prefer to start with the Python language instead of Java. This book will be great for weeklong workshops, or the first few weeks of an introductory course in middle school, high school, or early undergraduate education.
It's important to point out that this book is NOT a comprehensive introduction to the Python programming language -- of which there are already many good ones -- any more than the original book by Reas and Fry is an "introduction to Java". Instead, this book gets you quickly to the point of being able to make interactive things in Python-Processing. If anything, it introduces Python programming through concrete examples rather than abstract principles.
