Please no, that's the worst possible book for someone trying to learn 
OOD in Python.  It's mostly if not completely irrelevant, jumping 
through hoops that you don't need in Python because of its dynamic 
nature.  Start with the factory pattern and I hope you'll understand why 
I say this.  Search for "design patterns alex martelli" and you'll get 
all you need and more.
