An engaging introduction to Data Science that emphasizes critical thinking over statistical techniques. An introduction to Data Science or statistics shouldn’t involve proving complex theorems or memorizing obscure terms and formulas, but that is exactly what most introductory quantitative textbooks emphasize. In contrast, Thinking Clearly with Data focuses, first and foremost, on critical thinking and conceptual understanding in order to teach students how to be better consumers and analysts of the kinds of quantitative information and arguments that they will encounter throughout their lives.

The book provides guidance on the underlying knowledge areas of banking, enterprise risk management, enterprise architecture, technology, event management, processes, and Data Science. The first part of the book explains the current state of banking architecture and its limitations. After defining a target model, it explains an approach to determine the "gap" and the second part of the book guides banks on how to implement the enterprise risk-adjusted return model. Data virtualization (DV) can unify both structured and unstructured data in real-time to power the ERR model. DV has grown in its usage and is a critical part of modern enterprise data architectures. Data as a service (DaaS) is a business-centric service that delivers data assets on demand using a standard connectivity protocol in a predetermined, configurable format and frequency. DV can be exploited by enabling DaaS for data democratization and decision making. Machine learning (ML) and deep learning algorithms are finding more use cases in risk management and in general banking functions. Banks with large derivative portfolios have been early adopters as ML is good at managing non-linear relationships between explanatory variables and explained variables. ML can improve accuracy as be applied for a broader set of variables.

This textbook provides future data analysts with the tools, methods, and skills needed to answer data-focused, real-life questions; to carry out data analysis; and to visualize and interpret results to support better decisions in business, economics, and public policy. Data wrangling and exploration, regression analysis, Machine Learning, and causal analysis are comprehensively covered, as well as when, why, and how the methods work, and how they relate to each other. As the most effective way to communicate data analysis, running case studies play a central role in this textbook. Each case starts with an industry-relevant question and answers it by using real-world data and applying the tools and methods covered in the textbook. Learning is then consolidated by 360 practice questions and 120 data exercises. Extensive online resources, including raw and cleaned data and codes for all analysis in Stata, R, and Python, can be found at site.

This book concentrates on mining networks, a subfield within data science. Data science uses scientific and computational tools to extract valuable knowledge from large data sets. Once data is processed and cleaned, it is analyzed and presented to support decision-making processes. Data science and machine learning tools have become widely used in companies of all sizes. Networks are often large-scale, decentralized, and evolve dynamically over time. Mining complex networks aim to understand the principles governing the organization and the behavior of such networks is crucial for a broad range of fields of study. Here are a few selected typical applications of mining networks: Jupiter notebooks (in Python and Julia) accompany the book and can be accessed on site.

This book debunks the common notion that data are the foundation of any analysis. It shows that a much more basic foundation is needed before results of data analysis can be used in an organization effectively - appropriate business processes must be designed and built to accept them. The question is posed early in the book, “We have to change the way we work”? Yes, we must change the way we work. That has happened many times before. It happened during the Industrial Revolution to harness steam power to drive big machines. It happened during the Computer Revolution to move from typewriters to word processors and from paper ledgers to computer databases. AI and analytics programs are considered something you “add to your business or organization” - a department, some data scientists, some software, and some training.

Data engineering as a distinct role is relatively new, but the responsibilities have existed for decades. Broadly speaking, a data engineer makes data available for use in analytics, machine learning, business intelligence, etc. The introduction of big data technologies, data science, distributed computing, and the cloud have all contributed to making the work of the data engineer more necessary, more complex, and (paradoxically) more possible. It is an impossible task to write a single book that encompasses everything that you will need to know to be effective as a data engineer, but there are still a number of core principles that will help you in your journey.
