Description
The bestselling classic has been revised and updated! A colorful guide to the world's most consequential trivia, Visual Miscellaneum by David McCandless is a reference book like no other. It now includes 18 all new graphs and 23 updated ones. It helps us make sense of our world by putting the data we are bombarded with every day -- health findings, technological advances, cultural touch points, war statistics -- into creative visual perspective. Like Show Me How by Lauren Smith and Schott's Miscellany, only more complete and satisfying, Visual Miscellaneum is a treat for the mind and the eye. Using cutting edge graphs, charts, and illustrations, author David McCandless creatively visualizes the world's most surprising relationships and compelling data. - Publisher.
