Format:Paperback
The book provides a comprehensive introduction to the methods and tools most used in data mining analysis. Tools are clearly described, and pointers to the literature are widespread. I enjoyed very much the case studies contained in the book which show very practically what the process of data mining means. In summary, I suggest this book both to professionals and students in computer science and statistics.

An excellent case-study book
23 Oct 2003
Format:Paperback
I found the book very useful especially because it contains fully worked out case-studies which, supported by the theoretical chapters, give clear guidance on how to actually do data mining

User-friendly textbook
5 July 2006
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I recently purchased the book by Dr. Giudici and I found it very informative for someone who is becoming acquainted with data mining. I would classify the book as intermediate/advanced. For a future edition, a further discussion on the technical issues involving the estimation methods would be desirable, in my view.
I would definitely recommend this textbook for a Master's level course.

Poor Prose
15 April 2009
Format:Paperback
This book is a difficult read, not because of the subject matter, but because of the writing. The author may know what he is writing about, but has difficulty conveying that in English. There is knowledge in this book, but it takes a lot of effort to decode.
