A pretty darn good book for teaching modern data science from an applied perspective. http://t.co/cEThsXwFzH

@joelgrus Finishing up your book and the MapReduce chapter kind of contains the phrase "data science big fiction." (with some integers). A+

It's an especially fun read in a somewhat crowded book genre and also has a refreshingly functional approach in the code.
