Data Points Visualization That Means Something

'A detailed handbook, Data Points is especially useful for those working on scientific data visualization, guiding the reader through fascinating examples of data, graphics, context, presentation and analytics. But this is more than a mere how-to manual. Yau reminds us that the real purpose of most visualization work is to communicate data to pragmatic ends.' (Nature, May 2013)
 
'Ultimately, I would recommend this book for anyone interested in the process of design and analysis. It is about making sense of data and that is becoming a crucial skill in this digital age.' (Madia Information & Technology Journal, August 2013)

"Data Points opens an exciting view of information blending data analysis, visual interaction, and digital storytelling...the visuals are stunning." (Managing Information, October 2013)
