This is the first element of the Big Bang of Data Science, Research from the Start to The End.
I don’t want to stick to that abstract and direct definition from the academic book, on the meaning of research, but from the industrial one. So, I believe RESEARCH is the concertmaster with the highest leadership position among all the other parts that are responsible for the outcome of a product. Research is an art that identifies the identity and confirms the destiny of the product. Put simply, if you have a bad research start, no matter how well and advanced equipped you are, I guarantee your product will be a failure. To this end, the first book is carefully crafted to meet all the requirements to build your product on the right foundation of research method. Find more details from the documentation site of the book, as well as the recorded lectures.
