How Charts Work - Understand and Explain Data with Confidence
Author(s): Alan Smith
Business & Economics | FT Books of the Year 2022
How Charts Work brings the secrets of effective data visualisation in a way that will help you bring data alive.
Charts, graphs and tables are essential devices in business, but all too often they present information poorly. This book will help you:
- Feel confident understanding different types of charts, graphs and tables - and how to read them
- Recognise the true story behind the data presented and what the information really shows
- Know the principles and rules of how best to represent information so you can create your own information-driven (and beautiful) visuals
- Design visuals that people engage with, understand and act upon
Don't value design over information - present data persuasively.
