Query: For statisticians in data mining

Here are my impressions about the book.* The organization of book is clear and concise. No too lengthy and fuzzy discussions. Method and technique explanations are clear though sometimes bit hard to follow.* Liberal usage of colors. It helps to make drawings more attractive and to show more info. May be too bright for some.* My parts like SVM and LDA, PCA.... they seem to be explained in quite difficult way. Though it is clear enough and self-sufficient* There are many references and pointers to original works and related fields. Big plus here.* Work and results on real sample data. I particularly enjoy it! It helps to better understand each method and its +/-This is a good book for those who use statistics for data mining. It seems that there is more accent on probabilistic (frequentist) field. Though a reader is expected to have good enough level in maths to grasp the concepts quickly. May not be appropriate for the beginners in the field.
