I am yet to encounter projects that require this skill, hence not well-versed in this. I will look this up.Thanks.

It’ll colour your approach to everything but it’s unlikely to ever be directly “required”.

I’d recommend BDA3. It’s a Treasure of a book. The maths is relatively simple but it does expect a early grad level mathematical maturity.

I will look into this book. With the recent threads on HN commenting on whether Data Science is over-hyped, I think this knowledge would help in adding value.Thanks.

Is this the book you are recommending? http://www.stat.columbia.edu/~gelman/book/

Yes.
