    Infographics Design BNN Inc. 2014 ISBN 9784861009334 Acqn 24036 Pb 22x30cm 168pp 440ills 400col 27.50 This book looks at infographics and data visualizations, modes of expression that have been getting attention recently, and gathers together outstanding examples in practice. These modes of expression are used to convey information and data in a way that is easier to understand. Only after you have clarified the objective, examined the information you want to communicate, edited the data, and done the design do they begin to function as useful tools. Visualizing data, sometimes adding movement, leads to discoveries of hidden information and meanings contained within the data. Making it entertaining in a way that suits the information you want to be known will ensure that the information naturally spreads after it goes out into the world. While their purpose and context vary, this book presents wonderful examples with conscientiously inserted information, showcasing the power of communication.
