This broad, deep, but not-too-technical guide introduces you to the fundamental principles of data science and walks you through the “data-analytic thinking” necessary for extracting useful knowledge and business value from the data you collect. By learning data science principles, you will understand the many data-mining techniques in use today. More importantly, these principles underpin the processes and strategies necessary to solve business problems through data mining techniques.
