Not clear and well structured

The secrets to a good technical book, especially one that is comprehensive is organization and clarity. I found this book to be lacking in those regards. The material needs to be organized better, motivated better and the book as a whole could be more accessible. Note that if you was DIS-organized Python material there is a ton of information on the web. For Python in particular, the secret to a good book is not listing all the hodge-podge of neat modules, but providing a coherent and sensible story for how all they stuff fits together. I think other books do that better.
