The Book to Start You on Machine Learning - KDnuggets

A question a lot of ML practitioners get asked a frequently is: "What can I do to start being able to actually build Machine Learning projects and solutions?" There is so much information out there -- both good and bad -- that it can be hard to know where to begin. Also, people come from very different backgrounds, so the starting point can vary significantly. For example, for me, I entered the ML world by watching theoretical videos from Computer Science channels about neural networks, and as I got more and more interested I started reading articles, news, and blogs about the topic. However, by doing this I only developed a vague understanding of the most superficial part of Machine Learning, and I was nowhere near being able to tackle a project by myself.
