Water water everywhere nor any drop to drink Data data everywhere no time to stop and think! There is scarcely a role that does not require us to understand analyse and present data. Charts graphs and maps are everywhere. However many of these data visuals leave the viewer bewildered confused or (even worse) with an incorrect understanding of the data. In contrast if designed well data visualizations help us make sense of data and communicate our insights better. Bringing her clear classroom-teaching style which has helped hundreds of data wranglers to this book the author walks you through the myriad ways that graphs can mislead helping to spot visualization traps and prevent misinterpretations.
