Synopsis
From the stock market to covid-19, census figures to marketing email blasts, we are awash with data. But as anyone who has ever opened up a spreadsheet packed with seemingly infinite lines of data knows, numbers aren't enough: we need to know how to make those numbers talk. In The Model Thinker , social scientist Scott E. Page shows us the mathematical, statistical, and computational models-from linear regression to random walks and far beyond-that can turn anyone into a genius. At the core of the book is Page's "many-model paradigm," which shows the reader how to apply multiple models to organize the data, leading to wiser choices, more accurate predictions, and more robust designs. Now culminating in an examination of how to use the multi-model approach to think about pandemics like covid-19, The Model Thinker provides a toolkit for business people, students, scientists, pollsters, and bloggers to make them better, clearer thinkers, able to leverage data and information to their advantage., Work with data like a pro using this guide that breaks down how to organize, apply, and most importantly, understand what you are analyzing in order to become a true data ninja. From the stock market to genomics laboratories, census figures to marketing email blasts, we are awash with data. But as anyone who has ever opened up a spreadsheet packed with seemingly infinite lines of data knows, numbers aren't enough: we need to know how to make those numbers talk. In The Model Thinker , social scientist Scott E. Page shows us the mathematical, statistical, and computational models--from linear regression to random walks and far beyond--that can turn anyone into a genius. At the core of the book is Page's "many-model paradigm," which shows the reader how to apply multiple models to organize the data, leading to wiser choices, more accurate predictions, and more robust designs. The Model Thinker provides a toolkit for business people, students, scientists, pollsters, and bloggers to make them better, clearer thinkers, able to leverage data and information to their advantage., Our world is awash with data. But as anyone who has ever opened a crowded spreadsheet knows, numbers aren't enough. We need models to understand what data mean. In The Model Thinker, Scott E. Page offers the answer: many-model thinking. By applying multiple diverse frameworks, we can achieve greater insights than by applying only one; indeed, using many models enables us to "scale a hierarchy from data through information and knowledge to wisdom. Page teaches us how and when to apply twenty-five broad classes of models-including random walks, entropy, and Markov chains-in a user-friendly and highly readable way. Culminating in an examination of how to use the multi-model approach to understand COVID-19, the opioid epidemic, and entrenched inequality, The Model Thinker provides a toolkit for business people, students, scientists, pollsters, and bloggers to make them better, clearer thinkers on the biggest issues they face.

- *****- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoReceived my order and the strings in the package weren't the right brand. Contacted the seller and the issue was quickly resolved. That aside, my items were packaged well and the strings I received looked great and were of good quality. For the price, condition and customer service, A+ Recommend!
- *****- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoItem as described and fine value. Packaging was secure. Arrived safely. It was so good to hear Mike again after all these years! I had this on an 8 track many years ago; and it is so good to have it again!
- *****- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoThe book is a good selection of ME's songs. Unfortunately it got damaged in the mail as it was posted in an ordinary paper envelope with no protection. The seller was very fair and refunded. I just wish she had packed it better as a mint copy got badly bent out of shape. So poor marks for packaging but top marks for customer service.
