What is a good book for learning Python when you already now some/many other languages?

Just follow the tutorial (yes, really) https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/index.html
It's what I started with, but honestly it's not great. It also heavily overemphasizes the interactive interpreter
REPL is kind of the point: did you try to type and run any of the examples in the tutorial? Just skimming it would be less useful (for the very basics).

If you already know everything in the tutorial, then try a project in Python that you did previously (familiar project, new language—Python).

Probably Python Crash Course.
