As machine-readable data comes to play an increasingly important
role in everyday life, researchers find themselves with rich
resources for studying society. The novel methods and tools needed
to work with such data require not only new knowledge and skills,
but also a new way of thinking about best research practices. This
book critically reflects on the role and usefulness of big data,
challenging overly optimistic expectations about what such
information can reveal, introducing practices and methods for its
analysis and visualisation, and raising important political and
ethical questions regarding its collection, handling, and
presentation.
