This weeks Data Science Book is " Graph Representation Learning " by W. Hamilton. This short (141 pages) book gives a grounded, well-written, and to the point introduction to representation learning for graphs that helps you grasp the fundamental concepts as well understand when to and when not to. The extensive bibliography provides entry points for further study for the motivated reader. The algorithm descriptions are clear and intuitive in a way that will give you a leg up to implement pre-existing algorithm and even develop your own variations.
