Great diagrams of that universal doggie smile! Reminds me of a notice I just received on Edward Tufte's new book, "Beautiful Evidence." He also wrote "The Visual Display of Quantitative Information" and is described as the Leonardo da Vinci of data." If this book were a house," one reviewer writes, "it would have been designed by Frank Lloyd Wright."
I've heard of that book, The Visual Display of Quantitative Information. Is it, or Beautiful Evidence, worth reading for a general reader? Which would you recommend more?
