Frankly, the mountain of resources is so vast that none of us can have 
experience of more than a small fraction, and effective learning is a 
factor not only of the quality of the teacher/book/training course, but 
how it meshes with your own learning style.

If you like learn-by-doing, you might take a look at PyBites 
(https://pybit.es/). But they're by no means the only players in that space!
