In a recent review of the book published in Online Information Review, Ina Fourie, University of Pretoria, South Africa, points out that, "a wide variety of issues concerning data mining and knowledge management [are] covered, such as frameworks for data mining and knowledge management, as well as knowledge management in e-government. Data mining challenges in this context, as well as knowledge management portals for empowering citizens and societies and the discovery guideline compliance in health services are also covered." Professor Fourie also notes that "the detailed table of contents followed by a preface setting out the rationale for the book and its organisation and the extensive list of references at the end of each chapter" is "useful."
