Automate Excel with Python: From Manual Grind to One-Click Workflow
I'm tired of copy-pasting and brittle formulas that break when rows shift. This book teaches you to replace those daily routines with reusable Python scripts. You'll learn to read messy workbooks, merge data without silent failures, and export polished results with formatting intact. Whether you write the code or let AI generate it, you'll stay in control of your business processes.
AI can write the code. This book makes sure you're the one in control of it.

These sort of things always seem to assume a fairly relaxed software environment.
In practice I’ve found the big corporates try hard to keep their excel files with financial data and their Python environments with pip & all those associated risks far apart. That’s if pip works at all & isn’t caught by a firewall

This is just an advertisement for a book. And a terrible advertisement. No sample chapters to evaluate the book.

Looking at the content, if you are familiar at all with Python and basic programming, this provides very little new. I sometimes have to stuff massive Excel-abominations with 50k+ rows and rip data I need out of them with Pandas, but it only requires reading Pandas documentation (which is very good) a bit.
But perhaps this might be good if you know no programming and want to make your life easier.
