Rövid leírás:

This book presents a practical approach to graphic data analysis with real applications front and centre. A knowledge of Statistics is not required, just an interest in data graphics and some experience of working with data.

Hosszú leírás:

Data graphics are used extensively to present information. Understanding graphics is a lot about understanding the data represented by the graphics, having a feel not just for the numbers themselves, the reliability and uncertainty associated with them, but also for what they mean. This book presents a practical approach to data visualisation with real applications front and centre.


The first part of the book is a series of case studies, each describing a graphical analysis of a real dataset. The second part pulls together ideas from the case studies and provides an overview of the main factors affecting understanding graphics.


Key Features:



  • Explains how to get insights from graphics.

  • Emphasises the value of drawing many graphics.

  • Underlines the importance for analysis of background knowledge and context.


Readers may be data scientists, statisticians or people who want to become more visually literate. A knowledge of Statistics is not required, just an interest in data graphics and some experience of working with data. It will help if the reader knows something of basic graphic forms such as barcharts, histograms, and scatterplots.
