Reference Overview

This is the overview page for area Reference.

This area is dedicated to collecting reference materials. Take a look at Textbooks on various subjects for a comprehensive list of reference texts on topics that have achieved critical mass. For now, this is dominated by texts in machine learning. I'll expand this as I read more.

I'm collecting a set of Common Yardsticks to address quantities that we encounter daily. This is my effort towards numerical literacy and a back-of-the-envelope temperament. Further, I am trying to map the modern World material flows qualitatively. This will help me map the value chain and understand societies better. Data Sources should come in handy for this.
