While Visualizing Data: Psychology and Analytics - Exploring, Explaining and Storytelling (Paperback) makes several valuable points about analytics, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of data visualization seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to storytelling. That said, the sections on data visualization are genuinely insightful and make the book worth reading despite its flaws. With some refinement in communication, this could be a truly outstanding work.

As a scholar in data visualization, I found Visualizing Data: Psychology and Analytics - Exploring, Explaining and Storytelling (Paperback) to be an exceptional contribution to the field. The author's approach to analytics is both innovative and rigorous, providing fresh insights that challenge conventional wisdom. Particularly noteworthy is the discussion of communication, which offers a compelling framework for understanding analytics. While some may argue that communication, the evidence presented is thorough and convincing. This book is essential reading for anyone serious about data visualization.
