Summary
This chapter explains how data science has been able to achieve its theoretical, methodological, and practical results by combining the approaches of different disciplines to create a new field. It also surveys the breadth of data science’s likely impact and explains that its continued success is due not only to its own core advances, but to coalitions with many other disciplines.
