The book did a great job helping build an intuition for ML, progressing at a good pace from simple concepts to end-to-end explanations of KNN and Decision Trees. I appreciated the inclusion of the sections on data preprocessing and standardization, which were helpful in creating a wholistic overview of what goes into developing classification & regression models. Bought the book initially because I'd gone to university with Eliott, but came out hoping for another book from him soon.
