Probability and Statistics for Data Science: Math + R + Data (Chapman & Hall/CRC Data Science Series) - Softcover
Synopsis
Probability and Statistics for Data Science: Math + R + Data covers "math stat"―distributions, expected value, estimation etc.―but takes the phrase "Data Science" in the title quite seriously:
* Real datasets are used extensively.
* All data analysis is supported by R coding.
* Includes many Data Science applications, such as PCA, mixture distributions, random graph models, Hidden Markov models, linear and logistic regression, and neural networks.
* Leads the student to think critically about the "how" and "why" of statistics, and to "see the big picture."
* Not "theorem/proof"-oriented, but concepts and models are stated in a mathematically precise manner.
Prerequisites are calculus, some matrix algebra, and some experience in programming.

Review
"I quite like this book. I believe that the book describes itself quite well when it says: Mathematically correct yet highly intuitive...This book would be great for a class that one takes before one takes my statistical learning class. I often run into beginning graduate Data Science students whose background is not math (e.g., CS or Business) and they are not ready...The book fills an important niche, in that it provides a self-contained introduction to material that is useful for a higher-level statistical learning course. I think that it compares well with competing books, particularly in that it takes a more "Data Science" and "example driven" approach than more classical books."~Randy Paffenroth, Worchester Polytechnic Institute
