Provides an introduction to data science, focusing on the fundamental skills and principles needed to build systems for collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data. Aids the reader in developing mathematical intuition, illustrating the key concepts with a minimum of formal mathematics. Highlights the core values of statistical reasoning using the approaches which come most naturally to computer scientists.

It focuses on the principles fundamental to becoming a good data scientist and the key skills needed to build systems for collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data. The Data Science Design Manual is a source of practical insights that highlights what really matters in analyzing data, and provides an intuitive understanding of how these core concepts can be used. The book does not emphasize any particular programming language or suite of data-analysis tools, focusing instead on high-level discussion of important design principles.

Steven S. Skiena is Distinguished Teaching Professor of Computer Science at Stony Brook University, with research interests in data science, natural language processing, and algorithms. In fact, the author himself designates it as a textbook for an introductory course on data science.

The chapters are richly equipped with exercises. The topics are always explained starting with a proper motivation and continuing with practical examples.

This is perhaps the most outstanding feature of the book. It can serve as a regular textbook for an academic course. In fact, I should like to recommend it exactly for this purpose. On the other hand, it provides a wealth of material for people from industry, such as software engineers, and can serve as a manual for them to accomplish data science tasks. It should be noted that the book is not just a text, but a much more complex product, including a full set of lecture slides available online as well as a solutions wiki.
