Readers of this newsgroup might be interested in a new book on data 
crunching, which is available from Amazon:

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0974514071

or directly from the Pragmatic Programmers:

http://www.pragmaticprogrammer.com/titles/gwd/index.html

The book covers basic text processing, regular expressions, XML 
manipulation, binary data handling, and the 10% of relational databases 
that every programmer should know.  Most of the examples are in Python 
(though Unix command line tools, XSL, and SQL are in there as well). 
The book is aimed at beginner and intermediate programmers; I hope that 
people with a background in science and engineering will find it 
particularly useful.

Thanks,
Greg Wilson (its grinning author)
