Business analytics has been gaining popularity faster than any management trends we have seen in the recent history. As an attempt to unify the understanding of "what business analytics is," the business community along with educational community have developed a simple taxonomy where they defined analytics using three progressive phases/echelons: descriptive/diagnostic analytics 🡪 predictive analytics 🡪 prescriptive analytics. This book is about prescriptive analytics, the highest echelon in the analytics continuum, and is the one closest to "making accurate and timely decisions."
