Chapman & Hall/CRC the Python Introduction to Python: With Applications in Optimization, Image and Video Processing, and Machine Learning, (Hardcover)

The book is written to be accessible and useful to those with no prior experience of Python, but those who are somewhat more adept will also benefit from the more advanced material that comes later in the book. This book is written in such a way that it can also serve as a self-contained handbook for professionals working in various fields.
