- Summary:
- "Using 101 maps, graphs, charts, and plots of the 2016 United States presidential election data, this book explores the rich diversity of thematic mapping and the visual representation of data. It details well-known techniques and shows you how to design effective maps and graphics. It also shows innovative and fascinating alternative ways of making maps of empirical data which you can use in your own work. Each example illustrates a different approach to visualising the same data, and all lead to different ways of seeing different shades of truth. Which will speak to your truth?"--Back cover.
