This book provides an introduction to statistical learning methods. It is aimed for upper level undergraduate students, masters students and Ph.D. students in the non-mathematical sciences. The book also contains a number of R labs with detailed explanations on how to implement the various methods in real life settings, and should be a valuable resource for a practicing data scientist.
Winner of the 2014 Eric Ziegel award from Technometrics.

'An Introduction to Statistical Learning (ISL)' by James, Witten, Hastie and Tibshirani is the 'how to' manual for statistical learning. Inspired by 'The Elements of Statistical Learning' (Hastie, Tibshirani and Friedman), this book provides clear and intuitive guidance on how to implement cutting edge statistical and machine learning methods. ISL makes modern methods accessible to a wide audience without requiring a background in Statistics or Computer Science. The authors give precise, practical explanations of what methods are available, and when to use them, including explicit R code. Anyone who wants to intelligently analyze complex data should own this book. Larry Wasserman, Professor, Department of Statistics and Department of Machine Learning, CMU.
As a textbook for an introduction to data science through machine learning, there is much to like about ISLR. It's thorough, lively, written at level appropriatefor undergraduates and usable by nonexperts. It's chock full of interesting examplesof how modern predictive machine learning algorithms work (and don't work) in a variety of settings.' Matthew Richey, The American Mathematical Monthly, Vol. 123, No. 7 (August-September 2016).
'I just wanted to thank you all for the textbook 'An Introduction to Statistical Learning' that you have contributed to as authors. As a junior at university, it is by far the most well-written textbook I have ever used, a sentiment mirrored by all my other classmates. One friend, graduating this spring with majors in Math and Data Analytics, cried out in anger that no other textbook had ever come close to the quality of this one. You and your team have turned one of the most technical subjects in my curriculum into an understandable and even enjoyable field to learn about. Every concept is explained simply, every equation justified, and every figure chosen perfectly to clearly illustrate difficult ideas. This is the only textbook I have ever truly enjoyed reading, and I just wanted to thank you and all other contributors for your time and efforts in its production.' Cornell Blake, Junior, Ohio State University.
'As a former data scientist, there is no question I get asked more than, 'What is the best way to learn statistics?' I always give the same answer: Read An Introduction to Statistical Learning. Then, if you finish that and want more, read The Elements of Statistical Learning. These two books, written by statistics professors at Stanford University, the University of Washington, and the University Southern California, are the most intuitive and relevant books I've found on how to do statistics with modern technology.' Dan Kopf, Reporter, Quartz. Full review here.
