In Data Sketches, Nadieh Bremer and Shirley Wu document the deeply creative process behind 24 unique data visualization projects, and they combine this with powerful technical insights which reveal the mindset behind coding creatively. Spanning 12 different topics – from the Olympics to Presidents & Royals and from Movies to Myths & Legends – each pair of visualizations explores different technologies and forms, blurring the boundary between visualization as an exploratory tool and an artform in its own right. The book provides an intimate, behind-the-scenes account of all 24 projects and shares the authors’ personal notes and drafts every step of the way.
The book features:
Detailed information on data gathering, sketching, and coding data visualizations for the web, with screenshots of works-in-progress and reproductions from the authors’ notebooks
Never-before-published technical write-ups, with beginner-friendly explanations of core data visualization concepts
Practical lessons based on the data and design challenges overcome during each project
Full-color pages, showcasing all 24 final data visualizations
This book is perfect for anyone interested or working in data visualization and information design, and especially those who want to take their work to the next level and are inspired by unique and compelling data-driven storytelling.

接触的“学院派”数据可视化久了,书中各种创意数据可视化让人眼前一亮。 作者把数据、草图、实现、反思中的思考过程事无巨细地记录下来,具有很强的逻辑性。其中有些问题本人也曾遇到如数据结构不符合或是数据不够等等,能读到作者如何思考、解决困境也是给我很大的启发。 数据可视化其实是拿数据做颜料,代码为画笔去讲数据里的故事。
