Chris et al:
Tufte is a genius at conception and explanation.
You MUST get his first book: Visual Display of
Quantitative Information $24 at amazon.com
His second is almost as good: Envisioning Information $28.80 at amazon
I have not seen his third but at
the amazon price of $27 I suggest that you
at least go to amazon.com and read reviews of it.

I have no connection with amazon.com except as
a very satisfied customer.
