Packt’s new “Python Text Processing with NLTK 2.0 Cookbook”

I’m rather excited to have received a review copy of Packt’s new NLP book “Python Text Processing with NLTK 2.0 Cookbook“, it is based around Python’s Natural Language Processing toolkit.

I’ve been using the O’Reilly book for over a year, I’m curious to see what’s different between the two. I’ll post a full review once I’ve been through it.

  • Hi Ian, I did my best to minimize overlap with the O'Reilly book, and wrote a bit about that here: http://streamhacker.com/2010/11/15/beginning-python-text-processing-nltk-cookbook/. I hope you enjoy the book :)
