Inform your own analyses by seeing how one of the best data analysts in the world approaches analytics problems

Analytics Stories: How to Make Good Things Happen is a thoughtful, incisive, and entertaining exploration of the application of analytics to real-world problems and situations. Covering fields as diverse as sports, finance, politics, healthcare, and business, Analytics Stories bridges the gap between the oft inscrutable world of data analytics and the concrete problems it solves.

Distinguished professor and author Wayne L. Winston answers questions like:

  • Was Liverpool over Barcelona the greatest upset in sports history?
  • Was Derek Jeter a great infielder
  • What's wrong with the NFL QB rating?
  • How did Madoff keep his fund going?
  • Does a mutual fund's past performance predict future performance?
  • What caused the Crash of 2008?
  • Can we predict where crimes are likely to occur?
  • Is the lot of the American worker improving?
  • How can analytics save the US Republic?
  • The birth of evidence-based medicine: How did James Lind know citrus fruits cured scurvy?
  • How can I objectively compare hospitals?
  • How can we predict heart attacks in real time?
  • How does a retail store know if you're pregnant?
  • How can I use A/B testing to improve sales from my website?
  • How can analytics help me write a hit song?

Perfect for anyone with the word "analyst" in their job title, Analytics Stories illuminates the process of applying analytic principles to practical problems and highlights the potential pitfalls that await careless analysts.

So excited to read this book!!
Format: Paperback
Love Eileen McKusick and her work. I’m deep diving into her books and wealth of knowledge. I finished her first book Tuning the Biofield and can’t wait to start this one. If you haven’t heard of her then I highly recommend listening and going to her YouTube channel. I bought her tuning forks and I’m a huge believer in frequency healing. Learning all I can for my family and as a caregiver in career. This book will give me a deeper understanding of the electric body and I’m ready for it!!

Brilliant unique perspective. Life changing.
Format: Kindle
This is hands down my most recommended book for anyone interested in emotional health. The straightforward, yet scientific writing is extremely well edited, and easy to follow. The philosophy is brilliant. Taking your time working through it, and creating audio meditations for each chapter to get more out of it is critical through the process. I discovered this book on a deep rabbit hole and am so happy that this information is out there. Thank you Eileen! I look forward to learning more! My deepest gratitude for what you have created with this whole system! The book recommendations in Electric Body, Electric Health are also brilliant. William David The Harmonics of Sound for example is another one that demands some meditation to absorb.

Open your mind to discover the electric you !
Format: Paperback
Electric body electric health is an informative book, presenting and clarifying what it means to be electric. A concept to change the mindset not specifically challenging current medical cosmology models but presenting a sound case for the electric body within the electric universe. As a PT Movement educator and Biofield Tuning practitioner certified and educated by Eileen McKusick (the author) along with Jillian Faldmo Rn and Angela Kent , this book solidifies my strength as a Practitioner and melding movement breath and voltage. In a world where sitting, zooming and taking pills or alcohol to escape is prevalent, Eileen provides the tools as simple as laugh , sing and dance but also the science to include feeding our micro cells at the tiniest micro level, their nourishment through utilizing oxygen from nature, plants we eat , clean water. Electric interactions, including what we know and theorize with the electron transport chain of energy as well as the Krebs cycle with its energetic reactions, gives the argument to think electrically and be electric to shine your light. Shining your light is a perfect example of melding electric and emotional as our body reacts to memories , sounds and movement. I am grateful to be part of the biofieldtuning family. I am grateful as Brene Brown says, as Eileen "dared greatly". Her boldness to dare to challenge the norm and present the electric health within the electric universe. Our spark is our connection to each other and our light shines as we care for our inner body, our Biofield around us and our Electric universe .
