Recenzii
'A welcome addition to the literature on data driven decision making. Finlay's book gives a commendably non-technical discussion of the business issues associated with embedding analytics into an organisation and how data, big and small, can be used to support better decision making. It is peppered with case studies from the author's experience and is a great source of insight for technicians and business people alike.'
-Paul Russell, Director of Analytics, Experian UK&I

'Analytics is the latest organizational enthusiasm harnessing data, both internal and external, to add value is no easy task. This introduction hits all the right notes with case studies and insight gathered from Steve Finlay's considerable experience.
