Jake VanderPlas writes technical books about scientific computing, data science and Python. Python Data Science Handbook introduces NumPy, pandas, Matplotlib and machine-learning workflows through practical examples, making it a broad reference for readers moving from basic Python into data analysis. His writing emphasises executable code, visualisation and the relationship between tools rather than abstract computer-science theory. The book is structured so individual sections can be used independently when readers need help with arrays, dataframes, plotting or model building. VanderPlas's work fits Python data science, scientific computing, data visualisation and introductory machine learning. Read more Less
