On this page I’ll be writing about books I’ve read and recommend and sometimes about books I’ve already bought and going to read in the nearest future. If you’re looking for books with step by step instructions like “click File then click Open”, this is a wrong place to search. In this list you’ll usually find either advanced guides and references or books that expand your mind and change the way you think (about business intelligence, data analytics, data visualization). I’m in Europe, so I’ll be giving links mostly to Amazon.co.uk, but you can find the same books on Amazon.com.
