Continued from the back cover: "Once you have the basics of the language, you'll want to put it into use. This book covers a variety of topics which will help you harness the power of Jython. You will learn how to develop dynamic applications and scripts, and access databases from Jython to build powerful database applications. Fundamental to getting the most out of Jython is Java integration, and this book encourages you to use Java within Jython code as well as Jython within Java code.
"Jython has matured a lot between the last couple of versions and it is now compliant with modern versions of the Python language. This means that you can now take advantage of Python frameworks such as Django and Pylons, which are both covered in this book.
