This book is all about organizing data to create information to support the quest for gaining knowledge. I absolutely enjoyed this book and give it high marks for any of the following categories of people: · Customers—very enlightening · Entrepreneurs—interesting opportunities · Problem solvers—a slew of data available · Concerned Citizens interested in the authoring and implementation of effective public policy · High school math student who wonders “How is this class going to help me?” · Ethicists—“with great power comes great responsibility” (Peter Parker’s Uncle Ben)
