There are programming books aimed at kids, but none that I know of aimed at adult business users. There are people who could write themselves small, useful programs, but who will flee in well-justified terror if you start talking about overriding import hooks. There are people spending hours cutting-and-pasting from one file to another because they don't know how to write a six-line script. There are people could replace some of their daily tedium with just a little dose of Python. There is Resolver One, which is a fantastic way to integrate tiny dashes of Python with everyday spreadsheet work, but it's being used by thousands instead of by millions.
