If you are new to programming:

http://wiki.python.org/moin/Beginner...NonProgrammers

If you already know at least one programming language:

http://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide/Programmers

Your goal is to read, work the examples, and understand the Python
Tutorial by Guido von Rossum:

http://docs.python.org/tut/

If you can't understand it, then read other, easier tutorials and books
until you do.

I'd say read "Learning Python" (2nd ed.)

If you like a practical approach you can try
Langtangen's Python Scripting for Computational Science.
