Reviews

'Good Data brings a breath of fresh air, an invigorating blast of common sense, to the debate about our digital world. In place of scare stories about surveillance and exploitation, the book provides new insights from an expert, and pragmatic suggestions about how we can make data work for us as a shared resource. This is an essential read for anybody interested in shaping a positive digital future' -- Diane Coyle, University of Cambridge 'Good Data weaves some thorny issues into a story that is positive, interesting, easy to read and provides valuable insight' -- Peter Turner, Chief Commercial Officer, Avast 'There is increasing concern about how the big tech companies use - and abuse - our data. In this highly readable book, Sam Gilbert sets out how this data can be used for good, and describes how to think about controlling big tech while still achieving the positive benefits from it' -- Julian Huppert, University of Cambridge
