Machine learning has become an integral
part of many commercial applications and research projects, but this
field is not exclusive to large companies with extensive research teams.
If you use Python, even as a beginner, this book will teach you practical ways to build your own machine learning solutions.
With all the data available today, machine learning applications are limited only by your imagination.
You’ll learn the steps necessary to create a successful machine-learning application with Python and the scikit-learn library.
Authors Andreas Müller and Sarah Guido focus on the practical aspects of using machine learning algorithms, rather than the math behind them. Familiarity with the NumPy and matplotlib libraries will help you get even more from this book.

My Comments:
A very good introduction to machine learning concepts.
Systematic organization of the topics, and ample examples provided makes it a worthwhile read.
Several important algorithms have been discussed along with their pros and cons with minimum use of advanced mathematics.
Much much better book to start with Machine Learning as compared to the "Machine Learning for Dummies" book which was pedagogically horrible.
