      Used Good(1 Copy): New How complex ideas can be communicated via graphics If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. --Albert Einstein Our everyday lives are filled with a massive flow of information that we must interpret in order to understand the world we live in.

The in-depth introductory section, illustrated with over 60 images (each accompanied by an explanatory caption), features essays by Sandra Rendgen, Paolo Ciuccarelli, Richard Saul Wurman, and Simon Rogers; looking back all the way to primitive cave paintings as a means of communication, this introductory section gives readers an excellent overview of the subject. The second part of the book is entirely dedicated to contemporary works by the current most renowned professionals, presenting 200 graphics projects, with over 400 examples--each with a fact sheet and an explanation of methods and objectives--divided into chapters by the subjects Location, Time, Category, and Hierarchy.
