Goodreads asked David Clinton:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

David Clinton My most recent book would be "Teach Yourself Data Analytics in 30 Days: Learn to use Python and Jupyter Notebooks by exploring fun, real-world data projects"
I really wanted to learn for myself how to mine all the data that's flying around. Why shouldn't I get the chance to derive original insights, too? Sure, complex data science would require a formal education lasting years. But the basic tools couldn't be that hard to learn, right?
So I dragged myself up the learning curve and, when I saw how (relatively) simple it was, I figured I'd share the process with the world.
