Great book.  We have several copies here at work.

Yes!  Please use Pythoscope, but not just Pythoscope.  Pythoscope will 
generate unit test stubs and with the proper points of entry it will 
generate actual unit tests.  Pythoscope doesn't yet embody all the 
concepts of the book.  Even when done you will still need to understand 
the concepts.  Michal based a lot of his work on the understanding he 
got from the book.   If you need to retrofit legacy code you should use 
both Pythoscope and read the book.
