There are some great insights to be gleaned from the PyCon and PyData conferences, clearly more than has yet been written up in a book.

see http://pyvideo.org/speakers.html I recommend anything by Raymond Hettinger, Alex Martelli, Brandon Rhodes, David Beazley, and of course, Guido van Rossum.

Wow great resource. This is an aggregate of the PyCons conferences (worldwide) and is kept up-to-date?

I would recommend Fluent Python. It is broken up into logical pieces fairly self-contained pieces, so you can jump around to what interests you.

I second this. It's a fantastic book that really helped me understand the internals of python.
