    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    "

    This book is designed as a foundational textbook for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students from non-technical fields who want to acquire a basic understanding of data science and learn practical skills in data analysis. It distinguishes itself by combining theoretical knowledge with practical applications, bridged through extensive Python programming exercises. To accommodate social scientists' needs, the book emphasizes the analysis of textual data, especially those acquired from surveys and social media. For those without prior programming experience, the book provides instruction on using an AI-assisted Python programming tool, following the learn-by-doing methodology of acquiring new skills through experience. The overall learning goal of the book is to develop a conceptual understanding of data mining as well as the technical skills necessary for real-world data analysis.
