The First Three Minutes - A...

Steven Weinberg

A Nobel Prize-winning physicist explains what happened at the very beginning of the universe, and how we know“Science writing at its best.” ―New York Review of Books   Our universe has been growing for nearly fourteen billion years. But almost everything about it can be traced back to what happened in just the first three minutes of its existence. In this book, Nobel laureate Steven Weinberg describes in wonderful detail what happened in these first three minutes. It is an exhilarating journey that begins with the Planck Epoch―the earliest period of time in the history of the universe―and goes through Einstein’s Theory of Relativity, the Hubble red shift, and the detection of the cosmic microwave background. These incredible discoveries all form the foundation for what we now understand as the “standard model” of the origin of the universe. Clearly and accessibly written, The First Three Minutes is a modern-day classic, an unsurpassed explanation of where it is that everything really comes from.

The Decision Intelligence...

N.E. Malcolm, L. Y. Pratt

Decision intelligence (DI) has been widely named as a top technology trend for several years, and Gartner reports that more than a third of large organizations are adopting it. Some even say that DI is the next step in the evolution of AI. Many software vendors offer DI solutions today, as they help organizations implement their evidence-based or data-driven decision strategies. 
 
 
 
But until now, there has been little practical guidance for organizations to formalize decision making and integrate their decisions with data. 
 
 
 
With this book, authors L. Y. Pratt and N. E. Malcolm fill this gap. They present a step-by-step method for integrating technology into decisions that bridge from actions to desired outcomes, with a focus on systems that act in an advisory, human-in-the-loop capacity to decision makers. 
 
 
 
This handbook addresses three widespread data-driven decision-making problems: 
 
 
 
● How can decision makers use data and technology to ensure desired outcomes? 
 
 
 
● How can technology teams communicate effectively with decision makers to maximize the return on their data and technology investments? 
 
 
 
● How can organizational decision makers assess and improve their decisions over time?
