'A detailed handbook, Data Points is espe­cially useful for those working on scientific data visualization, guiding the reader through fascinat­ing examples of data, graph­ics, context, presentation and analytics. But this is more than a mere how-to manual. Yau reminds us that the real purpose of most visualiza­tion work is to communicate data to pragmatic ends.' (Nature, May 2013) 'Ultimately, I would recommend this book for anyone interested in the process of design and analysis. It is about making sense of data and that is becoming a crucial skill in this digital age.'
