Communication is a critical yet often overlooked part of data
science. Communicating with Data aims to help students and
researchers write about their insights in a way that is both
compelling and faithful to the data. General advice on science
writing is also provided, including how to distill findings into a
story and organize and revise the story, and how to write clearly,
concisely, and precisely. This is an excellent resource for
students who want to learn how to write about scientific findings,
and for instructors who are teaching a science course in
communication or a course with a writing component. Communicating
with Data consists of five parts. Part I helps the novice learn to
write by reading the work of others. Part II delves into the
specifics of how to describe data at a level appropriate for
publication, create informative and effective visualizations, and
communicate an analysis pipeline through well-written, reproducible
code. Part III demonstrates how to reduce a data analysis to a
compelling story and organize and write the first draft of a
technical paper. Part IV addresses revision; this includes advice
on writing about statistical findings in a clear and accurate way,
general writing advice, and strategies for proof reading and
revising. Part V offers advice about communication strategies
beyond the page, which include giving talks, building a
professional network, and participating in online communities. This
book also provides 22 portfolio prompts that extend the guidance
and examples in the earlier parts of the book and help writers
build their portfolio of data communication.
