Review: Big Data is a fascinating, complex, and multi-layered topic that, with its inherent complexities, could have easily turned this book into a several hundred page publication. The truth is, the ethics around big data are equally if not more complex than the mechanics of how its collected, segmented and used. Fortunately, both Kord Davis and Doug Patterson do not wade too deeply into toolsets or the mechanics, but artfully balance real world examples with thought-provoking points about the use and ethics of big data. Whether you actively are collecting and using big data today or you are completely new to the topic, Ethics of Big Data is an excellent (and easy) read for all to really explore the implications behind such rich insights collected on each one of us. I most appreciated the examples peppered throughout of different corporate published policies versus their actual use of big data. Ethics of Big Data poses very important questions and considerations that every organization should think through. Equally beneficial is for consumers to understand how big data is used today and the risks of its abuse. Best of all, the book does not impose an ethical standpoint, but rather provides a meaningful structure for organizations to establish their position on and statement of use of big data. Despite the deep nature of the topic, this book is an easy and insightful read and one that I would definitely recommend.
Review: The book is very short und includes 4 chapters – “Big Data, Big Impact”, “Values and Actions”, “Current Practices”, and “Aligning Actions with Values”. It raises a lot of questions and includes lots of repetition but lacks the answers. The book claims to deal with the topic “Ethics of Big Data” but, in my opinion, it only covers the aspect “Personal Data” in die Big Data field, as it only mentions “Privacy”, “Identity”, “Ownership”, and “Reputation”. It is a short, nice intro into the topic “ethical questions of Big Data” and helps to get a first and basic overview. But for a deeper dive it’s not enough.

As our organization is actively exploring greater use of "big data", I thought I would try to get knowledgeable about some of the potential ramifications of this area. I've not completely gotten through the book, but I was more than a little surprised at the book's length (68 pages) - which seemed "less" than what it should have been (based on what I'm not sure), and it seemed disproportionate for the price (although I purchased a Used copy). What I've read so far has not been either inspiring or a significant revelation, but maybe that's just how it goes with some books.
