Data Science for Non-Coders
Science in general is common for all. Anybody can learn it, practice it, share it, experiment it, question it. Its method of practice for any specific discipline often comes with a learning curve. For some sciences, the learning and unlearning process is more depending upon its evolution throughout history and whether is it being useful or got used (objectification) by the society. Technology cannot be scientific without practicing scientific principles. By default any technology is neither good, nor bad, not even neutral. It is only the scientific process and social participation that makes the corresponding technology pro people, democratic, and scientific - combating anti-scientific forces that coexists in the society.
Even when the field has no restriction for participation, its current honorary status builds artificial barrier for which the historically built knowledge itself contributes for. Thus with time, to make science more accessible, participating community has to unlearn, dehonour unnecessary fame, etc…
Data Science
Data science can be interpreted as a field that provides scientific methods and process to practice data operations and have always existed from the time whenever humans have started to quantify and organize the knowledge based upon the data, information, facts they have experienced, collected, observed from their environment. Such practice has always been useful to organize information and thereby form proper knowledge to understand historical labour contributed to such knowledge contribution and how it can be useful to the society on the whole.
