Big Data, Big Dupe by Stephen Few
Big Data, Big Dupe is a little book about a big bunch of nonsense. The story of David and Goliath inspires us to hope that something little, when armed with truth, can topple something big that is a lie. This is the author's hope. While others have written about the dangers of Big Data, Stephen Few reveals the deceit that belies its illusory nature. If data is the new oil, Big Data is the new snake oil. It isn't real. It's a marketing campaign that has distracted us for years from the real and important work of deriving value from data.Stephen Few is the founder of Perceptual Edge, a data visualization firm. He travels the world speaking, teaching, and consulting, and he also publishes the quarterly Visual Business Intelligence Newsletter. Information Dashboard Design: Presenting Data for At-a-Glance Monitoring, Now You See It: Easy Visualization Methods for Quantitative Analysis, and Show Me the Numbers: Creating Tables and Graphs to Enlighten are some of his books.
