Good Job

The author(s) did a great job of explaining complex topics. It's a textbook, so there's a good combination of both theory and math. I like the way that the book uses one company as the focus of examples for the entire book. It's creates continuity.

So Nice

I'm using this book for a Data Mining class in grad. school. I'd never taken a data mining course. Considering that it was a brand new topic to me, I'd say that I've come a long.

Super Helpful Book


The content of the book seems pretty good. I have only got up to about chapter four so far and it's easy to read and introduces material in a reasonably gentle manner.

Good One

I will admit that there are a few points where the author assumes that the reader knows a math concept and doesn't explain it, but overall, if you have at least an introductory level knowledge of statistics, you'll be fine. .

Great Book


The book is easy to digest, filled with examples, and provides a comfortably paced (some would say slow) introduction to any mathematical / computational concepts required to understand any given subject.
