    About this ebook

    * Our summary is short, simple and pragmatic. It allows you to have the essential ideas of a big book in less than 30 minutes.

    By reading this summary, you will discover that big data analysis is about to revolutionize our knowledge of humans and society.

    You will also discover :

    the four powers of big data;
    the considerable contributions of big data to the humanities, but also to medicine, business and politics;
    the unspeakable shortcomings that it reveals about man and society;
    the risks inherent in these discoveries and their use by governments or companies;
    the avenues they provide for understanding and remedying these shortcomings.

    Scientists have invented microscopes to see the infinitely small and telescopes to see the infinitely far. On the other hand, their dreams of a "cerebroscope", i.e. a machine that can read thoughts, have long been in vain. The big data is now approaching it. Indeed, each individual produces 2.5 million billion bytes of data per day and their exploitation is still in its infancy. You are currently experiencing the beginnings of a revolution in scientific knowledge, but also in your daily life.
