Description:

Information Design identifies and examines issues of communicating information. Through real life problems and examples, hypothetical and historical examples, and seminal student work, the book establishes a conceptual and pragmatic understanding of human factors–driven information design. Not just a book of attractive and effective examples of information design, illustrations are utilized to help readers understand the principle under discussion and often include compromised or failed designs, which can be as instructive as successful solutions.
