-
- Edward R. Tufte, ``Envisioning Information,'' Graphics Press, 1990.
-
- It's available from bookstores or direct from the publisher for $48,
- Graphics Press, PO Box 430, Cheshire CT 06410. The author's previous
- book ``The Visual Display of Quantitative Information,'' is also highly
- recommended, $36 from the same place.
-
- Both are beautifully produced books about charts, graphs, and all sorts of
- visual display of information. Neither have anything to do with computers
- except for the fact that most charts and graphs are produced on computers
- these days.
