“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. Considering this complex variety of data floating around us, sometimes the best – or even only – way to communicate is visually. This unique book presents a fascinating perspective on the subject. It features 200 projects and over 400 examples of contemporary information graphics from all over the world – fields ranging from journalism to art, government, education, business and much more – along with four introductory essays about the development of information graphics in history and up to the present day.
