Currently I am reading this book in Safari Books Online and it looks excellent. I was not a fan of PacktPub but Lately they are releasing excellent books like Mastering Web development with AngularJS and Learning IPython for interactive computing besides this Machine Learning book. The only grunge against this book is it used Iris database for its "Hello World" and some how i could not wrap around that data, rest seems to be approachable to me (Disclaimer: I have not completed the book).

In my experience, the Packt books have always felt as though they have had very little editing and review (things you'd never see in a technical book from e.g. Addison Wesley or Prentice Hall). So if the book seems great it's probably due mostly to the author (which is fine with me if the book is cheap).

Looking at the table of contents, it seems the approach is deeper than O'Reilly's Collective Intelligence. I'm thinking about buying it, for Chapter 12 alone.

When you read that, can you tell us what is was like?
