A straightforward, full-color guide to showcasing data so
your audience can see what you mean, not just read about it
Big data is big news! Every company, industry, not-for-profit,

datasets that can quickly become ponderously large. Data

to handle and synthesize data in much more interesting ways than
mere columns and rows of numbers.

convey complex data in a clear, concise diagram, ways to create
eye-catching visualizations, and much more!
* Effective data analysis involves learning how to synthesize
data, especially big data, into a story and present that story in a
way that resonates with the audience
* This full-color guide shows you how to analyze large amounts of
data, communicate complex data in a meaningful way, and quickly
slice data into various views
* Explains how to automate redundant reporting and analyses,
create eye-catching visualizations, and use statistical graphics
and thematic cartography
* Enables you to present vast amounts of data in ways that won’t
overwhelm your audience
Part technical manual and part analytical guidebook, Data
Visualization For Dummies is the perfect tool for transforming
dull tables and charts into high-impact visuals your audience will
notice…and remember.
