    5,0 van 5 sterren Beautiful and eclectic book about data visualization
    Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 23 augustus 2025
    Formaat: HardcoverGeverifieerde aankoop
    If you like non-fictional books that are interesting and eye-opening, then this is the book for you! Information is Beautiful is simply a beautiful book. I loved how every page is extremely visually appealing. That is definitely a reason to read the book on its own.

    I really enjoy books that reveal the depth and complexity of the world we are living in—something that is so easy to miss when all our screens seem to promise an abundance of simplistic solutions to boredom. This book just does that! It brings together a great many disparate topics, and that opens the door to a room for the light of curiosity to explore.

    I was a bit concerned about one of the displays called “Behind Every Great Man … Dictators’ Wives”. The display focused on the wives of the horrible dictators of the twentieth century, like Hitler, Stalin, Marcos, and so on. Honestly, I was disturbed by the title for the display, because these men were all terrible people. They themselves may have thought of themselves as great, but today historians would most likely not use that word, even in quotes.

    But overall, I liked reading Information is Beautiful, and I appreciated the author’s goal to make information approachable and beautiful.

    Great book on infographics; artistic, interesting, full of flash facts, pleasant lecture.
    Great especially if you're not a "number person".

    5,0 van 5 sterren The book that launched a thousand infographics reminds you how good they can be
    Beoordeeld in het Verenigd Koninkrijk op 21 februari 2014
    Formaat: HardcoverGeverifieerde aankoop
    Apparently there were numerous errors in earlier versions of this book, but this review is for the 2012 edition which would appear to have corrected the omissions and errors of earlier editions.

    The most serious fault that I can level at McCandless's "Information is Beautiful" is that is has almost single handedly given rise to the infographic obsession that means that you can hardly go online without encountering some designer's view of information that is all style and little substance. However, returning to McCandless's book shows how, when done with thought and insight, the graphic can add to the reader's understanding of the data. The book is one part modern art, one part geek-porn and several parts graphic design. It's not only interesting, but is indeed as beautiful as the title promises it to be.

    When the book was first published, in 2009, many of the designs were seldom used - not most of them will be familiar and that threatens to minimise the importance of the book in the history of infographic design. Rather like HDR photography, a badly thought out infographic is dull and a bit cliche now, but when done properly, they really do get the message over. A picture is said to paint a thousand words, but a well-designed infographic can get over more than that. And this is full of them.

    McCandless is good at sourcing the data. One slight concern though is that there is a fair bit that is sourced from Wikipedia - which is seldom the most reliable of sources on anything. With that caveat, this book is a modern design classic. It's beautiful, interesting, clever and thoughtful.
