A practitioner's guide to resampling for data analysis, data mining, and modeling: A cookbook for starters

A practitioner's guide to resampling for data analysis, data mining, and modeling provides a gentle and pragmatic introduction in the proposed topics. Its supporting Web site was offline and, hence, its potentially added value could not be verified. The book refrains from using advanced mathematics and as such is useful for undergraduate courses for a broad range of sciences. Moreover, it is a suitable book for some first hands on experience with data mining. However, it is neither suitable as a resource for advanced issues nor has it much added value compared to its predecessors.
