I recommend you "Python Machine Learning" book as it demonstrates the machine learning concepts with a programming examples written by python.

Thank you Yassine.

In addition to the books already mentioned I recommend the following Link with a number of useful articles on Machine Learning.

It seems that it lacks a good book on machine learning at the moment. all the mentioned are not good at the moment.

Dear Sun,

Can you please show us the title of the good book on machine learning ?

Thanks,

Regards,

My suggestion on good book on machine learning should be to answer the hard problems of machine learning towards machine thinking, and machine understanding and machine connecting. Have you found this book?

No, I not found the book you recommended.

Also consider Coursera (https://www.coursera.org) and edX (https://www.edx.org) interactive courses alongside the texts suggested above.

Thanks

I suggest "Understanding Machine Learning: From Theory to Algorithms" by shai shalev. It is very good book for those who wants to learn machine learning from start.

It depends on how you define "effective". Is the most effective the most simple-worded/ less formal book? or is the most effective a more complete but denser book? Trevor Hastie has two free books which are just wonderful, The Elements of Statistical Learning https://web.stanford.edu/~hastie/Papers/ESLII.pdf, and An introduction to Statistical Learning https://www-bcf.usc.edu/~gareth/ISL/ISLR%20First%20Printing.pdf. I highly recommend both as starting point, although neither of those is focused on cloud computing.
