The book Social Media Mining with R is a timely text for researchers and practitioners, specially those in social sciences who want to apply the method of social media mining and learn basic R. The author provided a good balance of theory and step-by-step approach on how to implement different social media mining techniques (e.g. lexicon-based sentiments). However, the book lacks thorough explanation on how to interpret results from different social media mining techniques.Want to share your content on R-bloggers? click here if you have a blog, or here if you don't.
The books is useful as complementary material. Major books on social media mining and learning R are still necessary.
