Luciano Ramalho

Fluent Python is written for people who already program and keep writing Python as though it were Java: it works through the data model, the special methods, iterators, decorators, concurrency and type hints, and explains why the language behaves as it does rather than only how. Ramalho has worked as a Python developer in Brazil since the nineties and helped start the Brazilian Python association. The second edition covers the version changes that made much of the first one out of date.
