Allen Downey

Allen Downey is a Professor of Computer Science at Olin College and author of Think Python, Think Stats, Think Bayes, Think Complexity, and several other computer science books. The idea behind these books is that if you know how to program, you can use that skill to learn other things. I have a blog, Probably Overthinking It, where I write about data science, Bayesian statistics, and other topics.
