All social and policy researchers need to synthesize data into a
visual representation. Producing good visualizations combines
creativity and technique. This book teaches the techniques and
basics to produce a variety of visualizations, allowing readers to
communicate data and analyses in a creative and effective way.
Visuals for tables, time series, maps, text, and networks are
carefully explained and organized, showing how to choose the right
plot for the type of data being analysed and displayed. Examples
are drawn from public policy, public safety, education, political
tweets, and public health. The presentation proceeds step by step,
starting from the basics, in the programming languages R and Python
so that readers learn the coding skills while simultaneously
becoming familiar with the advantages and disadvantages of each
visualization. No prior knowledge of either Python or R is
required. Code for all the visualizations are available from the
book's website.
