Didn't provide any significant new perspectives, and should have been edited down to two-thirds the length. Useful as a primer to the uninitiated - but others can skip it.
A good read on Big Data, which provides a comprehensible background on digitization and datification.
Very similar to [b:The Naked Future: What Happens in a World That Anticipates Your Every Move? 18114099 The Naked Future What Happens in a World That Anticipates Your Every Move? Patrick Tucker https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1394997672s/18114099.jpg 25441329] but includes a bit of a statistical primer and also a more academic, step-back, point of view.
