About this listen
Do you want to know all about data science? Do you really want to understand why it is the future in all the most demanding job?
Over the last few years, data science has changed the concept of technology. It is adding value to every model of business by using deep learning and statistics. Technological benefits of data science cannot also be ignored.
The demand for data science is increasing rapidly. The basic reason behind this is the massive boom in the data generated and retained by the companies. Also known as “big data”, data scientists make the best use of this available information and figure out their best use.
The team of data scientists also help in generating a good amount of analytics from the information available. This information brings clarity to people on how to interact with the web and are the foundations on which most of the critical business strategies rest. The demand for the data scientists is gradually increasing and so there must be proper learning resources for them to cultivate their knowledge.
A data scientist has the following tasks to do:
- Analyse data
- Modelling/statistics
- Engineering/prototyping
A lot of data is available in every organization. All of them are not that easy to format. A data scientist’s job mainly revolves around formatting these data, keeping in mind some set of rules.
The goal of this book is simple: provide a perfect insight into data science from scratch. It clearly explains the difference between data science and big data, explaining the concept of big data very concisely and clearly. Operations on data are also very clearly explained in this audiobook. The book is also an ultimate guide to master data mining and data-analytic.

This book is designed to be an introduction to machine learning algorithms for a complete beginner. It starts with an explanation of exactly what machine learning algorithms are and then walks you through the languages and frameworks used to create them. Studying machine learning is considered to be quite challenging due to the impression that special talent is required or some unachievable level of mathematics is needed in order to understand the various algorithms and techniques. But anyone can learn to become a machine learner and put the theory into practice.

Whether you're learning how to code for the first time, or just trying to add to your programming arsenal, you're in the right place. Python is one of, if not the most, widely used programming language today, whether you're at a large corporation or at home developing a game. It doesn't matter if you're into game development or mobile app engineering; Python is a great choice either way. The structure of the language doesn't require lengthy code to be written, and its comprehensive standard library allows it to support multiple programming paradigms.

Deep learning is a very exciting concept. Before, computers could only do what they were directly taught. Today, they can make sense of unstructured data and learn without supervision, like good college students. This unsupervised learning from unstructured data is called deep learning. This book will explain the key concepts of deep learning and teach you the basics of Python, the programming language most widely used in deep learning.

In Superminds, Thomas Malone explains what we need to do to take advantage of this potential. Groundbreaking and utterly fascinating, Superminds will change the way you work - both with others and with computers - for the better.

Many people today are so dazzled by the long-term potential for artificial intelligence that they overlook the much clearer and more immediate potential for a new form of "collective intelligence": the intelligence of groups of people and computers working together. In Superminds, Thomas Malone explains what we need to do to take advantage of this potential. Groundbreaking and utterly fascinating, Superminds will change the way you work - both with others and with computers - for the better.

Richard Dawkins' brilliant reformulation of the theory of natural selection has the rare distinction of having provoked as much excitement and interest outside the scientific community as within it. His theories have helped change the whole nature of the study of social biology, and have forced thousands to rethink their beliefs about life.

In The Butchering Art, the historian Lindsey Fitzharris reveals the shocking world of 19th-century surgery on the eve of profound transformation. She conjures up early operating theaters - no place for the squeamish - and surgeons, working before anesthesia, who were lauded for their speed and brute strength. They were baffled by the persistent infections that kept mortality rates stubbornly high. A young, melancholy Quaker surgeon named Joseph Lister would solve the deadly riddle and change the course of history.

Our gut is almost as important to us as our brain, yet we know very little about how it works. Gut: The Inside Story is an entertaining, informative tour of the digestive system from the moment we raise a tasty morsel to our lips until the moment our body surrenders the remnants to the toilet bowl. No topic is too lowly for the author's wonder and admiration, from the careful choreography of breaking wind to the precise internal communication required for a cleansing vomit.

A good book may have the power to change the way we see the world, but a great book actually becomes part of our daily consciousness, pervading our thinking to the point that we take it for granted, and we forget how provocative and challenging its ideas once were - and still are. The Structure of Scientific Revolutions is that kind of book.

Does not live up to its title
- I think that there are some chapters that should not be presented in audio format.
- I perceived that a considerable part of the content is repetitive.
- The ideas are either to vague or to narrow.
