New Book: The Practice of Reproducible Research

Interested in reproducible research practices? We have exciting news from Justin Kitzes of the Berkeley Institute for Data Science:


"I and several colleagues have just released the open, online version of our new book, "The Practice of Reproducible Research: Case Studies and Lessons from the Data-Intensive Sciences" (to be published in print by the University of California Press) -

"The book is based around 31 case studies of research workflows, contributed by academic scientists and engineers from a variety of disciplines, in which each author describes the key practices, tools, and methods that they used to try to make their research as reproducible as possible. . . If reading 31 case studies sound like a bit much, we've also written a set of summary chapters (Part I of the book) that provides a basic overview of reproducible research and synthesizes lessons learned from across the contributed case studies."
