transform data into something meaningful - information. Applying
information visualization in research, service, teaching, and
professional life requires a solid understanding of graphic design
and the aesthetic along with hands-on skills and knowledge of data
principles and software. This book is applicable to students in all
domains, to researchers who need to understand how to create
graphics that explain their data, and to professionals and
administrators for professional development training. Website
