"Data Science Foundations is most welcome and, indeed, a piece of literature that the field is very much in need of…quite different from most data analytics texts which largely ignore foundational concepts and simply present a cookbook of methods…a very useful text and I would certainly use it in my teaching."
- Mark Girolami, Warwick University

Data Science encompasses the traditional disciplines of mathematics, statistics, data analysis, machine learning, and pattern recognition. This book is designed to provide a new framework for Data Science, based on a solid foundation in mathematics and computational science. It is written in an accessible style, for readers who are engaged with the subject but not necessarily experts in all aspects. It includes a wide range of case studies from diverse fields, and seeks to inspire and motivate the reader with respect to data, associated information, and derived knowledge.

Fionn Murtagh's very first post after his PhD was educational research at a national level, followed by nuclear energy risk assessment. He then worked for a dozen years on the Hubble Space Telescope, as a European Space Agency Senior Scientist. Following many Professor of Computer Science positions, teaching and research, and senior management positions in Ireland, France, USA and UK, he is very happy now to be advancing data science as Professor of Data Science, and Director, Centre for Mathematics and Data Science, at the University of Huddersfield.
