Ask Why Not What / The reading view

An invitation to think one step further.

The appeal of “Visualizing Data: Psychology and Analytics - Exploring, Explaining and Storytelling (Paperback)” starts with its focus on Data Visualization. That is fertile territory for a reader ready to move beyond collecting ideas and start making connections. Visualisation connects analysis with the way another person sees an argument. Choose a comparison that matters and ask which design decisions make that comparison easier to understand. Bring your strongest question to the material. Examine a claim, consider an alternative, and ask what evidence would settle the difference. There is real satisfaction in turning a broad interest into a sharper judgement. Worth exploring when you are ready for a fresh reading direction.
