Seems like in this book the authors tried to give a very initial abstract idea about data science and how it usually should be started. They used some cool colorful figures and diagrams to illustrate the ideas as well as they also added some case studies or practical implementation stories to the book. Another thing which caught my eye is the table for analytics. They presented the techniques with description, plus tips form pros with a references. Though I haven't gone through every one of them, it seemed cool to me. On the contrary, this book is definitely not a huge advanced some thing, but can be a great start from ground zero.

Este livro construído a várias mãos pelos funcionários da empresa Booz Allen Hamilton introduz o tema da Ciência de Dados, apresenta as ferramentas necessárias para trabalhar com a área e expande um pouco o background.

Funciona basicamente como uma introdução ao assunto, mas é muito bem escrito, com infográficos e ilustrações especialmente criativos. E tem uma seção que deveria ser impressa por todos que trabalham na área, um guia de como escolher a técnica adequada para cada pedaço do problema.
