This weeks Data Science Book is " Fundamentals of Data visualization " by C. O. Wilke. Here at D4Sci we're firm believers that an image is worth 1000 words (check out V4Sci if you haven't already) and this book will quickly and easily super charge your visualization skills. Wilke brings to bear the perspective of a Data Scientist to a field often dominated by Designers. Throughout this book, Wilke teaches you how to craft powerful visualizations with your tool or programming language of choice by introducing only as much visualization theory and concepts as necessary and without getting lost in abstract ideas or concepts. The authors experience as a Data Science makes this one of the best applied books on Visualization, despite the fact that the book is entirely language agnostic.
