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 and using information graphics, you'll learn how to use data visualizations 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 new things from it. You'll also get to peek into the creative process of some of the world's most talented designers and visual journalists, including Conde Nast Traveler's John Grimwade, National Geographic Magazine's Fernando Baptista, The New York Times' Steve Duenes, The Washington Post's Hannah Fairfield, Hans Rosling of the Gapminder Foundation, Stanford's Geoff McGhee, and European superstars Moritz Stefaner, Jan Willem Tulp, Stefanie Posavec, and Gregor Aisch. The book also includes a DVD-ROM containing over 90 minutes of video lessons that expand on core concepts explained within the book and includes even more inspirational information graphics from the world's leading designers. 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 On the DVD-ROM: In this introductory video course on information graphics, Alberto Cairo goes into greater detail with even more visual examples of how to create effective information graphics that function as practical tools for aiding perception. You'll learn how to: incorporate basic design principles in your visualizations, create simple interfaces for interactive graphics, and choose the appropriate type of graphic forms for your data. Cairo also deconstructs successful information graphics from The New York Times and National Geographic magazine with sketches and images not shown in the book.
从新闻界的角度阐述数据可视化。可视化作品的功能性与艺术性并非只能取其一,重视统计与数据的技术人员与在乎视觉效果的平面设计师也完全不是势不两立。书中除了阐述了数据可视化的核心原理之外,也详细描述了许多行业内顶尖团队的真实工作流程。第四部分的访谈读起来很有意思,每一个受访者风格都大不相同。
评分简明扼要,要点突出。一本应该是不是翻一翻的参考书。
评分的确不感兴趣。。。感恩做研究还有自己选择的权利,不然我大概会退学
评分Profile这部分里的采访很有意思,知道了一些数据可视化领域的专家
评分因为对新闻学,数据分析,公民社会非常感兴趣(订阅付费杂志报纸,订阅新闻邮件,关注推特油管媒体博客,学习相关慕课),所以接触到这本书。 阅读完前两章,通俗易懂,不仅把infographic和visualization的概念区分清楚,而且作者通过自己的经历,动手操作(修改完善其他有欠缺的作品),来演示说明可视化的技巧,以及认知方面的收获。 我个人觉得很多内容其实很通用,很实用。我本人在制作iPhone动画时,也能联想到书中的内容和经验。
