| Abstract: In the past, mining for gold consisted of choosing a site and then sifting through endless amounts of dirt. Sometimes the miner only found a few valuable nuggets, sometimes he hit upon an entire vein, but most of the time, he found nothing at all and decided to either move on to another promising spot or give up mining altogether and stop wasting his time. |

| Abstract: The opportunity to write a second edition of my book allowed me to reassess an old familiar topic. Gordon Linoff and I recently completed the new edition of Data Mining Techniques for Marketing, Sales, and Customer Relationship Management. The difference between the first and second editions says a lot about how the field has evolved. It says even more about how our own perspective has changed by years of running a data mining consulting practice. |
