It shows you how to draw elements of social research, such as constructing a research question, together with coding and collecting data through wrangling and visualisation.
Going beyond basic data science, it helps you take the next step into more advanced topics like time series analysis, natural language processing and social network analysis with confidence. Straightforward and practical, this book:
• Provides a set of techniques for capturing, cleaning, merging and presenting online data to help you develop best practice in your own research.
•Helps you access and extract APis while summarising important information.
