Metto il "letto" perché essendo un manuale di consultazione non ha senso una vera data di inizio e di fine. Forse un po' difficile per il mio livello, comunque lo considero un ottimo libro di consultazione, anche per chi è alle prime armi.

A good, thorough introduction into using Python (and in particular the numpy and pandas libraries) for data analysis. As with pretty much al books of this kind, after a while the mixture of text and examples makes it hard to follow but then, maybe it's not supposed to be read while sitting down in an armchair.

Compared with data analysis books written by people like Hadley Wickham, the author of this one obviously is more in the clan of "software development", i.e. caring more about "how" to use something without caring "why" use it. So this book is more like an expanded version of man page.
