### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Entertaining Overview of Big Data
  

*by A***N on Reviewed in the United States on 7 June 2015*

This is a very entertaining and informative book that provides an overview of the scientists and researchers who shaped and are shaping the rapidly expanding use of Big Data in probably every major industry (many examples provided, including hospitality, pharmaceuticals, home electronics).  Centered around the story of Jeffrey Hammerbacher (now at Mt. Sinai medical school), Lohr takes the reader to and through leading Big Data trends and the pretty brilliant people who are leading them.  (Who knew that a Bell Labs researcher named John Tukey first used the terms "bit" and first published the word "software" back in 1958?)  Chapter 10 deals with the downside of Big Data (privacy).  All in all, unless you are already an expert in Big Data, you will learn a lot from Data-ism.

    Thoughts on Dataism by Steve Lohr - Vignettes on Data Science, entertaining specifics but are they representative?
  

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United States on 28 August 2017*

I read Steve Lohr's book Data-ism with keen interest. The author is a noted reporter for The Times that writes on technology. I was looking forward to the book and found it an interesting read. However, it's a bit patchy in certain places and tends to focus specifically on one point or illustration. I'm not sure it gives a balanced view of the emerging field of data science. That said, I particularly liked the way it talked about how data science is revolutionizing farming -- how the putting together of many sensors enables one to get an overview of the field much more so than one could get normally.

### ⭐ 







  
  
    boring
  

*by B***B on Reviewed in Germany on 23 November 2016*

The book tries to be inspirational by telling the careers of big data players, but has almost not content apart from that.If you want to get into Big Data, get another book.
