Know about the book -

On Being a Data Skeptic is written by Cathy O'Neil and published by "O'Reilly Media, Inc.". It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1491947241 (ISBN 10) and 9781491947241 (ISBN 13).

"Data is here, it's growing, and it's powerful." Author Cathy O'Neil argues that the right approach to data is skeptical, not cynical––it understands that, while powerful, data science tools often fail. Data is nuanced, and "a really excellent skeptic puts the term 'science' into 'data science.'" The big data revolution shouldn't be dismissed as hype, but current data science tools and models shouldn't be hailed as the end-all-be-all, either.
