elbing 's review for:
Everybody Lies: What the Internet Can Tell Us about Who We Really Are
by Seth Stephens-Davidowitz
The author does a great job of showing how big data can help understand how we tick. He shows that there is a lot of data out there that is ripe for analysis on any kind of subject. He also explains what big data can't do, what it shouldn't do and the pitfalls of combing through that much data.
His writing has a very readable, first-person-storytelling style which gets you through some subtle concepts. Do read his perfect conclusion to the end!
If you are interested in human behaviour or big data, or both, this book is for you.
