It does not oversimplify concepts, and uses the right terminology, but the explanations are so straight to the point and visual that it is impossible not to understand everything that's been explained. I bought it mainly because I have been following statquest videos in YouTube forever and they have taught me more than my own PhD courses have. The fact that the explanations are visual is a tremendous help for us visual learners. 10 out of 10. I will be purchasing the CNN one next month. Review: Fantastic intro to ML - focuses on core ideas with plenty of visuals - I got this book because I'm a fan of Josh's YouTube channel. He has a knack for explaining things well in a funny way, by using visuals, jokes, and helping see the intuition behind things. This book is in a similar style. It is driven by diagrams and funny cartoons, plus jokes that made me LOL a few times (like "SoftPlus" sounding like a toilet paper brand, and mentions of Troll 2). The book is mainly from a stats perspective: Josh helps you see modelling as fitting data (but not overfitting it), even in the case of neural networks. What does it actually cover? Some of the most important models in ML: linear models, logistic regression, SVMs, decision trees, Naive Bayes and neural networks. On top of that, Josh discusses stats and ML fundamentals and how to evaluate and adjust models: which includes cross-validation and gradient descent. Appendices have a quick intro to some of the other math topics (like calculating derivatives). Where this book really shines is in bringing home a good intuition of how ML actually works, thanks to the clear explanations and detailed diagrams. There is a focus on the "big ideas" instead of getting lost in the minutiae while not shying away from the math. It also shows repeated themes and tools used in the field (e.g. minimising a loss function and gradient descent). In summary, I think this book is great whether you are someone starting to learn about ML or even if you have more experience and want a nice refresher of the fundamentals in a quirky way. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0BLM4TLPY | | Best Sellers Rank | 163,850 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 1,877 in Computer Science (Books) | | Customer reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (772) | | Dimensions | 15.24 x 1.83 x 22.86 cm | | ISBN-13 | 979-8986924007 | | Item weight | 500 g | | Language | English | | Print length | 304 pages | | Publication date | 7 Nov. 2022 | | Publisher | StatQuest Publications | ## Images ![The StatQuest Illustrated Guide To Machine Learning - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71AcMVziN1L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best for visual learners *by A***Z on 16 May 2025* Amazing book.
