I've been trying out python codes looking at the python tutorials at python.org. I've been getting a better idea of it now and the tutorials are very good at teaching practical programming. However, I also want to apply for Python jobs so what a little bit of theoritical information on the languages and little better concepts on the language. So I would like read some book along with following the tutorial. Can you suggest me which one to buy?

P.S. I'm a beginner at Python programming but I'm not new to Programming. Have knowledge of C and Java

There are many books offered free online.
You can find Game programming related books at this link:
http://wiki.python.org/moin/GameProgrammingBooks

There is also a good book for beginners called "A Byte of Python"

Also try Python Programming for absolute beginners by Mike Dawson, a veteran game developer. Don't know if the book is available free online. The hard copy comes with a disk with useful codes.

Along with any of these books, I suggest you go through some video tutorials available on Youtube.

There are many resources for learning on this site itself.

So Good Luck with Python

You can learn from youtube videos. There are plenty of them for learning python. I suggest checking out python4information page. Alternative follow python tutorial to learn some basic concepts. Google has Python class but for intermediate programmers. Have fun learning python :)

"Dive Into Python" Mark Pilgrim's free online book, novice to pro, is updated constantly, and has been rewritten for Python3
