Following the theory of each technique, poor examples are presented and analyzed, lessons drawn and principles explained and summarized along with a concluding set of good examples. A vast range of tables, charts, maps, text and data visualization are presented to illustrate errors as well as possible solutions to difficult presentational issues; throughout the book the main focus is on getting the correct message from the data. The final chapter deals with data visualization - or 'live' demonstrations of data characteristics on the internet\"--\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFront Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA clear easy-to-read guide to presenting your message using statistical data\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePoor presentation of data is everywhere; basic principles are forgotten or ignored.
