The Book on Intelligent Data Analysis

This book was brought to my attention during our artificial intelligence days.   It has gone through another edition since I taught from it.   Profited from its clear explanations.  Admittedly with an academic bent.   Still worth the price for surveying advanced business analytics.    Intelligent Data Analysis: An Introduction by Michael Berthold and David Hand  On the second edition:

"One excellent feature of the second addition … . This is a particularly nice overview with excellent descriptions and numerous illustrations, most in color, for a wide variety of types of visualizations. " (E. Ziegel, Technometrics, 2005)"In this second edition … have expanded the coverage of topics and ensured that this remains the key text for surveying the field. The twelve chapters which make up the book provide an academically rigorous and concise to the key methodologies which make up the discipline. … In all this is a comprehensive survey of the field, and will appeal to graduate and post-graduate students, researchers and academics seeking an overview of the theoretical tools available for intelligently analyzing large, complex data sets."
