Munther A. Dahleh is William Coolidge Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and Founding Director of the Institute for Data, Systems, and Society at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He is well known for his seminal contributions to the foundations of the field of decisions under uncertainty, impacting several application domains including transportation systems, power grids, and social, economic, and financial networks. He is a four-time recipient of the IEEE CSS George S. Axelby Outstanding Paper Award for papers in the 'IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control' and the 1993 recipient of the Eckman Award for outstanding control engineers under thirty-five.'I'm often asked by students what they should be studying in the modern era, and my standard response for some years has been 'control theory, economics, and statistics.' Munther Dahleh has been a living embodiment of this blend for as long as I have known him, in this book one accompanies Munther on his very fine adventure in bringing an entire institution into the fold. I hope and expect that many people will read this book, including future historians.' Michael I. Jordan, University of California, Berkeley
'Munther Dahleh's breadth of knowledge is showcased in this discussion that ranges from the history of AI to the building of the world's preeminent institute of data science. Munther provides fascinating insights on the challenges, promise, and successes of using data to improve societies, and delivers a must-read for everyone from budding data scientists to policy makers and institution builders.'
