Data Scientists are tweeting their ML books collection, thanks to this viral post by Bojan Tunguz
Bojan Tunguz, a senior systems software engineer at NVIDIA, tweeted a snapshot of his collection of books on coding, data science and machine learning. The tweet went viral and attracted lots of responses from the data science and machine learning community. “This collection would get you close to 98%-99% of all the necessary core skills to be good data scientists,” he said.

This collection would get you close to 98%-99% of all the necessary core skills to be a good Data Scientists. 1/6 pic.twitter.com/c1M4wpEXWt— Bojan Tunguz (@tunguz) March 23, 2022 Bojan’s list includes: Approaching almost any machine learning problem – Abhishek ThakurFeature engineering for machine learning – Zheng and CesariHands-on unsupervised learning using Python – Ankur A. PatelDeep learning with Pytorch –  Eli Stevens, Luca Antiga, Thomas ViehmannIntroducing Python – LubanovicMachine learning using TensorFlow cookbook – Alexia Audevart, Konrad Banachewicz, and Luca MassaronNatural language processing with transformers – Lewis Tunstall, Leandro von Werra, Thomas WolfHands-on gradient boosting with XGboost and Scikit – learn – Corey WadeDeep learning with python – François CholletEffective Pandas – Matt HarrisonMachine Learning using Pytorch and scikit – learn While Bojan’s collection covered most notable books on coding, data science & ML, we have found a few quote tweets mentioning the important books he has missed out such as: Deep learning for coders with Fastai and Pytorch – Jeremy Howard and Sylvain GuggerDeep learning – Ian GoodfellowHands-on machine learning with scikit- learn, Keras and Tensorflow – Geron AurelienPattern recognition and machine learning – Bishop Meanwhile, Alex Engler, a research fellow in Governance Studies at The Brookings Institution, opined the list doesn’t have books on data collection (tools or theory), SQL, data viz or communication, experiments, causal inference, or domain knowledge. https://twitter.com/AlexCEngler/status/1506735926625583119 In his response, AI_digator highlighted the severe bias of the data science community against the coding language R. Meanwhile, Leon Palafox, the director of artificial intelligence at Grupo Salinas, said the collection has no books on theory. Not a single theory book…….. https://t.co/AWzk5sHMhr— Leon Palafox (@leonpalafox) March 23, 2022 Bojan Tunguz’s tweet represents an ongoing trend on social media where subject matter experts are posting their cache of books on data science, artificial intelligence and machine learning. Check out a few posts below: Ranabir Devgupta, a business intelligence engineer at Amazon Payment Products, showcases his book collection on ML: This trend is not restricted to book but all kinds of resources that aspirants can use to get a deep understanding of machine learning, data science and AI. Here we go, in no ranking order and does not include other books (digital statistitcs,R,comp sci/unix books)😜 pic.twitter.com/w0gOZs16k7— RK (@rprabha) March 24, 2022 Here goes my journey over last 6+ yrs. Bottom most is my oldest buy & top most latest buyDidn’t read most of these. But this pic summarizes my journey well:Statistics -> Theory of ML(R) -> Tool based application oriented (Python)If I start today, I will do it other way pic.twitter.com/Qfzv9Tcv9R— Arnab Biswas (@arnabbiswas1) March 24, 2022 Meanwhile, the trend continued on Linkedin too:
