Infographics and data visualization are graphic visual representations of information, data or knowledge intended to present information quickly, easily and clearly to the masses. This book explores the basic knowledge of infographics and data visualization by tracing its history and defining major types. Fifteen masters and talented data visualizers were invited to share their work in the book and they share how they strategically handle information and data. The volume is a terrific resource for information designers and common readers who like visualizing information and analyzing data.
