How disappointing this book turned out to be and I had to stop reading after page six when the author posited post election racism search results from Google. There is great promise in big data and it has certainly provided us with heretofore unknown insights. However, one has to be careful and inquisitive about results and findings. Correlation does not always prove causation. While the author is a data scientist, making blanket statements and not being curious or delving deeper into the results is a disservice to the field and readers.
