Jason C. McDonald is a software developer, speaker, and author of both fiction and nonfiction. By day, he works as a software engineer. By night, he is the founder of MousePaw Media (https://mousepawmedia.com/), an open source software company where he trains software development interns. You can usually find him haunting his local coffee shop.
Steven Bingler is a software engineer in Boston, Massachusetts, with a masters degree in electrical engineering. He is an experienced technical reviewer who, in his spare time, enjoys cycling, bouldering, and finding new places to eat.
Denis Pobedrya, better known as deniska on the Libera.IRC network, is familiar with some darker corners of Pythons data model. He is a self-proclaimed jack-of-all-trades, working in many jobs (including warehouse management). He is currently a Python backend developer for a marketplace service.
Ryan Palo is a mechanical engineer turned software developer writing Python at Flashpoint. He has a masters in computer science (Intelligent Systems). He loves sharing his passion for physics, math, writing, and code, any way he can, primarily through his blog, https://www.assertnotmagic.com/. He can usually be found at home with his wife, daughters, cat, dog, various assorted Linux devices, and about eight too many ukuleles.
For Daniel Foerster, technical editing for Dead Simple Python was a labor of friendship and of passion. He was blessed to encounter Python as a young teen and hasnt met another language that fits his brain so well since. After years of leading development efforts in Python and getting involved with teaching programming in and beyond the workplace, Daniel has turned his vocational emphasis toward pedagogy.
Simon de Vlieger, better known in some circles as supakeen, is a part of the furniture on the Python IRC community. He is a senior programmer with an interest in Python, C, and experimental languages, plus an affinity for software security. Hes very much at home on the AVR and other tiny embedded chips. He is employed by Red Hat, where he currently works on building Linux in a sane and repeatable fashion.
Dead simple concurrency? Seriously?
That was my reaction when I first heard about this book. Python in general is a wonderful language and easier to grok than most, but many (or even most) things in the world of programming are still anything but dead simple.
But then Jason explained what he had in mind in writing a book with those two words in the title. Its not dead simple in the sense of being a dumbed-down book that presents Python in overly simplistic terms. Rather, its dead simple in the sense of being a book that people will read and say, This topic initially seemed hard to understand, but now that youve explained it, its really obvious to me. Having studied and taught coding in general and Python in particular for 30 years, Id say that this is absolutely the best goal for any form of teaching: to present the concepts so clearly that the way even the tricky topics work seems inevitable.
But thats not the only area where Dead Simple Python is ambitious. The sheer amount of material presented here is equally impressive. This book covers virtually every aspect of Python that someone who wants to write useful code might need. These include everything from the basics of variables, data structures, and loops, to, yes, things like concurrency and parallelism. As Ive looked through this book, every single chapter has impressed me with its completeness and wealth of detail.
So, does this book really make concurrency (and everything else) seem dead simple? After years of teaching and writing, I know I cant answer that question for anyone else, but I can say for sure that the examples are engaging and well thought out, the explanations are clear and accessible, and the coverage is outstanding. Thats a really tough combination to beat.

Youve heard the expression It takes a village to raise a child. In the same way, it takes a village to write a book. In the case of Dead Simple Python, several villages were involved!
The Python community, especially those residing in #python on Libera.Chat IRC, have been been supporting, informing, and challenging me ever since my first Hello, world in Python. Most of my knowledge about this language traces back to the lovable nerds in that chatroom. Im thankful for all the feedback and insight theyve provided on
