Dataclysm

Dataclysm: Who we are when we think no one's looking / Christian Rudder 300 pgs.

An excellent book that reveals the power of big data.  Christian Rudder is a co founder of the dating website OkCupid and he has a lot of data about people who are looking for dates.  In this book, he boils down a huge pot of data to some wonderful insights about about groups of people.  The analysis is interesting, fun to read while sometimes shocking (and sometimes not).  Rudder has done a great job of making this digestible for the average folk.
