This is brilliant!

unobserved confounder = ghost node

(I guess it is a reference of music's ghost note, right?)

I also think should be official

Iโ€™m deeply grateful to Manning Publications for giving me the opportunity to write this book. A very special thanks goes to Frances Lefkowitzโ€”sheโ€™s been essential in making this book clear and accessible to everyone.

I hope you enjoy it!

There are lots of examples, and Iโ€™ve included code in both R and Python, plus an introduction to the #DoubleML library.

The book walks you through Pearlโ€™s graphical approach step by stepโ€”how to model reality with graphs and use them to choose the right analysis. It covers the adjustment formula and the backdoor criterion, which are tools to separate correlation from causation.

The second reason is more personal. Are you the kind of person who wants to understand why things are the way they are? If so, CI is for you. Its whole purpose is to uncover the why.

First, making decisions based on data isnโ€™t as easy as it seems. There are always tons of factors affecting things at the same time. We need a way to figure out what really matters and what doesnโ€™t, so we can estimate the impact of our decisions. Thatโ€™s where CI comes in.

So, why do I think causal inference (CI) is a must-have skill for anyone working with data? Here are my two big reasons.

My book "Causal Inference for Data Science" is finally finished! This is the result of three years of work. My goal with this book was to create something informal and intuitive, yet deep enough to really dive into the fundamentals of causal inference.
