The writing style does not change much, and I do find that it's taking me longer than usual to work my way through the book, especially since I'm very interested in the subject matter. That being said, there are some good nuggets of information a little further in. Understanding some of the patters that pop up in the causal scenarios he lays out and being able to think about these with a shorthand or graphically has changed the way I think about complex situations.
I read it in a beach in Greece. It really opened up some new thoughts to me that are relevant to some of the problems that I am thinking about in applying ML in science. It made me want to go back and read some of his more technical work. It's not the easiest of reading, but I definitely found it worthwhile!
Worth finishing?
