Book How Charts Lie  Getting Smarter about Visual Information

Download or read book How Charts Lie Getting Smarter about Visual Information written by Alberto Cairo and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A leading data visualization expert explores the negative—and positive—influences that charts have on our perception of truth. We’ve all heard that a picture is worth a thousand words, but what if we don’t understand what we’re looking at? Social media has made charts, infographics, and diagrams ubiquitous—and easier to share than ever. We associate charts with science and reason; the flashy visuals are both appealing and persuasive. Pie charts, maps, bar and line graphs, and scatter plots (to name a few) can better inform us, revealing patterns and trends hidden behind the numbers we encounter in our lives. In short, good charts make us smarter—if we know how to read them. However, they can also lead us astray. Charts lie in a variety of ways—displaying incomplete or inaccurate data, suggesting misleading patterns, and concealing uncertainty—or are frequently misunderstood, such as the confusing cone of uncertainty maps shown on TV every hurricane season. To make matters worse, many of us are ill-equipped to interpret the visuals that politicians, journalists, advertisers, and even our employers present each day, enabling bad actors to easily manipulate them to promote their own agendas. In How Charts Lie, data visualization expert Alberto Cairo teaches us to not only spot the lies in deceptive visuals, but also to take advantage of good ones to understand complex stories. Public conversations are increasingly propelled by numbers, and to make sense of them we must be able to decode and use visual information. By examining contemporary examples ranging from election-result infographics to global GDP maps and box-office record charts, How Charts Lie demystifies an essential new literacy, one that will make us better equipped to navigate our data-driven world.

Download or read book Good Charts written by Scott Berinato and published by Harvard Business Review Press. This book was released on 2016-04-26 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dataviz—the new language of business A good visualization can communicate the nature and potential impact of information and ideas more powerfully than any other form of communication. For a long time “dataviz” was left to specialists—data scientists and professional designers. No longer. A new generation of tools and massive amounts of available data make it easy for anyone to create visualizations that communicate ideas far more effectively than generic spreadsheet charts ever could. What’s more, building good charts is quickly becoming a need-to-have skill for managers. If you’re not doing it, other managers are, and they’re getting noticed for it and getting credit for contributing to your company’s success. In Good Charts, dataviz maven Scott Berinato provides an essential guide to how visualization works and how to use this new language to impress and persuade. Dataviz today is where spreadsheets and word processors were in the early 1980s—on the cusp of changing how we work. Berinato lays out a system for thinking visually and building better charts through a process of talking, sketching, and prototyping. This book is much more than a set of static rules for making visualizations. It taps into both well-established and cutting-edge research in visual perception and neuroscience, as well as the emerging field of visualization science, to explore why good charts (and bad ones) create “feelings behind our eyes.” Along the way, Berinato also includes many engaging vignettes of dataviz pros, illustrating the ideas in practice. Good Charts will help you turn plain, uninspiring charts that merely present information into smart, effective visualizations that powerfully convey ideas.

Book Graphic Charts in Business How to Make and Use Them

Download or read book Graphic Charts in Business How to Make and Use Them written by Allan C. Haskell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Graphic Charts in Business How to Make and Use Them This book was written as a companion volume to "How to Make and Use Graphic Charts" the large demand for which the author ascribes mainly to the tremendous public interest in the subject. The extraordinary growth in the use of graphic methods which has been, perhaps, more voluminous in the last five years than in the whole period prior to 1917, seems to be due to the fact that three of the main functions of charts can be performed by their use much more rapidly, easily and cheaply, than by any other method. For Computation, whereby many, if not indeed most, of the processes of mathematics can be performed without the labor and often without the knowledge of the mathematics involved; for Recording multitudes of facts of a great variety; and, for the Demonstration of facts in a quantitative way, the graphic chart is the best instrument that has yet been developed. As a consequence, thousands of business concerns have adopted graphics as a standard method for the promotion of greater efficiency in organization, advertising, production control, etc.; colleges and universities are giving special courses in graphic methods; and "graphic service" organizations are springing up for the purpose of making charts for those who need them and cannot learn how to make them fast enough. This, however, is of no great help to the vast majority of business and professional men who either never went to college or who left it long ago, and who, if not too tired, are at least too busy to plunge into a subject which contains many technical questions, and the current literature of which is "shot full of mathematics." To make it easy for the man of business to see when and how graphic methods can best serve his purposes and thus to save him money, time or trouble, is the purpose of this book, and in pursuit of this idea mathematical discussion has been avoided. A great many examples, illustrated by actual charts, have been included as more valuable than elaborate discussions in print. Following the practice in the author's earlier book there is given also a bibliography of the principal books and articles, containing material on business statistics and graphic methods, that have come to notice since 1 the publication of "How to Make and Use Graphic Charts." It is probably inevitable that with the large growth in the use of i charts there is developing an erroneous application of charts to a number of different kinds of business problems. Particularly does this apply in I the use of charts with plain arithmetic ruling, which are best adapted for showing a comparison of absolute numerical quantities, in the place of; the so-called ratio charts which are best adapted for showing a comparison of percentage variations, comparative trends, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
