Learn how expert data visualisation designers reason about their craft

In The Art of Insight: How Great Visualization Designers Think, renowned visualisation designer and educator Alberto Cairo, in conversation with several leaders in the field, delivers an inspiring exploration of how they make design choices. The book is a celebration of visualisation and a personal journey that dives into subjects like:

  • How the professional background and life experiences of every designer shape their choices of what to visualise and how to visualise it.
  • What designers from different countries and cultures, and working in different fields, such as data art, data analytics, or data journalism, have in common, or how they differ from each other.
  • How designers reflect on research, ethical reasoning, and also aesthetic judgments, to make decisions such as selecting the most appropriate ways to encode data, or the most appealing visual style.

Perfect for data scientists and data journalists, The Art of Insight will also inspire artists, analysts, statisticians, and any other professional who uses data visualisations.
