Each easy-to-follow chapter poses one key question and provides an array of valuable answers, including data visualisation examples throughout. Structured in three parts, Part 1 introduces fundamental data visualization principles, Part 2 introduces more unusual questions, challenges best practices and reveals when rules are open to interpretation, while Part 3 looks at ideas leading on to specific projects in more detail. The book also shares the inspiration and practical knowledge behind a successful data visualisation blog. Questions in Dataviz will appeal to any reader with an interest in creative data visualization and will be especially useful for those at a beginner or intermediate level, or those who want to step away from conventional business charts for non-business projects"--PPN: PPN: 1882640926Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-4-NLEBK | BSZ-4-NLEBK-KAUB
