It's hard for me to say anything about this book. I find no fault with it, except that I feel meh about it. On the positive side, at times I felt I'd really like to argue with the author on minor differences of opinion.

The book is really sensible, it's written as to be gripping with human interest in there. I don't fundamentally disagree with anything. I found out new things about machine learning algorithms and their uses I didn't know before. But I still feel like I read a really good pop-sci-journalism piece. I don't know what it is that I wanted there to be to make it "a book" for me.
