Review
This is a great "next book." It helps you become a better coder and helps you to think more iteratively about your coding design. --Teaching Python with Kelly & Sean
If you're comfortable writing standard Python, this book will show you how to use other people's libraries to do cool things easily. --Boston Python
This might be a gold standard in Python educational material. A must have second book for every developer that ever wants to learn Python as a language. --Bytecode The Official PyATL Blog
Rather than being an introductory text, Vaughan's book pushes you in interesting directions for solving a diverse set of problems. Most of these "impractical" projects, while themselves being not so useless after all, will have parallels to real life projects. --Greg Laden's Blog
"The book is not a Python tutorial or guide. Instead, it presents stimulating coding projects for non-programmers who want to use Python for doing experiments, testing theories, or simulating natural phenomena."--Paolo Amoroso, Moonshots Beyond the Cloud Blog

About the Author
Lee Vaughan is a geologist with over 30 years' experience in the petroleum industry. As the Senior Technical Professional for Geological Modeling at a major international oil company, he was involved in the construction and review of computer models, the development, testing, and commercialization of software, and the training of geoscientists and engineers. An advocate for nonprogrammers who must use programming in their careers, he wrote Impractical Python Projects to help self-learners hone their skills with the Python language. His latest Python book, Real-World Python, came out in November, 2020.
