Big data can be used to tally clicks and traffic on web pages, find patterns in stock trades, track consumer preferences, identify linguistic correlations in large corpuses of texts. This book examines big data not as an undifferentiated whole but contextually, investigating the varied challenges posed by big data for health, science, law, commerce, and politics. Taken together, the chapters reveal a complex set of problems, practices, and policies. The advent of big data methodologies has challenged the theory-driven approach to scientific knowledge in favor of a data-driven one. Social media platforms and self-tracking tools change the way we see ourselves and others. The collection of data by corporations and government threatens privacy while promoting transparency. Meanwhile, politicians, policy makers, and ethicists are ill-prepared to deal with big data's ramifications. The contributors look at big data's effect on individual as it exerts social control through monitoring, mining, and manipulation; big data and society, examining both its empowering and its constraining effects; big data and science, considering issues of data governance, provenance, reuse, and trust; and big data and organizations, discussing data responsibility, "data harm," and decision making." 001387845 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001387845 650_0 $$aBig data. 001387845 653__ $$aINFORMATION SCIENCE/General 001387845 653__ $$aINFORMATION SCIENCE/Technology & Policy 001387845 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001387845 7001_ $$aSugimoto, Cassidy R.,$$eeditor. 001387845 7001_ $$aEkbia, H.
