I've been reading the AI Crash Course book over my winter break. I've read many Data Science/AI/ML books and have written one myself. I know how hard it is to cover these wide topics for all levels of readers.The author manages to cover some very wide topics and also provide algorithmic-code specifics for implementation (and provide a link to a repository of working code). While no book can cover everything in detail, this book was a good read and reinforces analytical problem-solving while providing specific details and references.I do recommend this book to the reader that is new to the field and want a book with hands-on examples of what algorithms do. It is well written, to-the-point, and relatable.Disclaimer- the publisher has reached out to me personally to read/review this book.

As a novice practitioner of AI and machine learning, it was a great refresher for concepts. The code snippets throughout the book is very illustrative and goes through the nitty gritty of the subject. A great read for beginners in the field, and a quick refresher for veterans in the field. While reading all the questions that a student would have is answered systematically by the author as you progress through the book. The author with his awesome narrative teaching style will always keep you engaged throughout the journey of learning AI.I highly recommend this book for anyone who is beginning a career in AI and ML as it emphasizes on implementation along with core concepts. Good luck readers and happy learning.
