“The coverage is very unique and I like the way that the theory is interspersed with applications and python scripts. I don’t know any other book that covers ML in such an integrated manner.” — Alfred Hero, Professor, University of Michigan, USA   “I think the selection of topics is really nice. Also, the math is very clearly written; I’m sure it will be greatly appreciated.” — Gábor Lugosi, Research Professor, Pompeu-Fabra University, Spain   SpringerLink | Google Books | Amazon | Barnes and Noble
