I am a Junior Data Scientist based in London with a strong background in Engineering Sciences. I have been self-learning Machine Learning and related skills throughout the past year, leveraging my background in Maths and Engineering Sciences. Here, I share a list of machine learning books that are now on my bookshelf. Most of these books have a free version available on their website and can be ordered from Amazon. I have included links to relevant HN discussions, as it is how I found out about these books in most of the cases.

I've read ESL but not AISL, but I've had several friends ask me about AISL. Would you say there is a lot of value in reading both?

I went through both for my dissertation but settled on ESL. It depends on your needs, AISL is fairly mathematical while ESL focuses more on concept - it is better to develop your understanding of the algorithms.
