This book closes the gap between what people think Excel can do and what they can achieve in the tool. Over the past few years, recognition of the importance of effectively visualising data has led to an explosion of data analysis and visualisation software tools. But for many people, Microsoft Excel continues to be the workhorse for their data visualisation needs, not to mention the only tool that many data workers have access to.

Although Excel is not a specialist data visualisation platform, it does have strong capabilities. The default chart types do not need to be the limit of the tool’s data visualisation capabilities, and users can extend its features by understanding some key elements and strategies.

Data Visualisation in Excel provides a step-by-step guide to creating more advanced and often more effective data visualisations in Excel and is the perfect guide for anyone who wants to create better, more effective, and more engaging data visualisations.
