functional art an introduction to information graphics and visualization Unlike any time before in our lives, we have access to vast amounts of free information. With the right tools, we can start to make sense of all this data to see patterns and trends that would otherwise be invisible to us. By transforming numbers into graphical shapes, we allow readers to understand the stories those numbers hide. In this practical introduction to understanding information graphics, you’ll learn how to use them as tools to see beyond lists of numbers and variables and achieve new insights into the complex world around us. Regardless of the kind of data you’re working with—business, science, politics, sports, or even your own personal finances—this book will show you how to use statistical charts, maps, and explanation diagrams to spot the stories in the data and learn more from them. The first book to offer a broad, hands-on introduction to information graphics and visualization, The Functional Art reveals: • Why data visualization should be thought of as “functional art” rather than fine art • How to use color, type, and other graphic tools to make your information graphics more effective, not just better looking • The science of how our brains perceive and remember information • Best practices for creating interactive information graphics • A comprehensive look at the creative process behind successful information graphics • An extensive gallery of inspirational work from the world’s top designers and visual artists
