This text brings data visualization in to the twenty-first century. It is a definitive guide for students and practitioners in presenting data with clarity and lucidity.
(David Boyns)

Very approachable writing style, clear examples and instructions make this a “must-have” for anyone who has to present data. (Thomas Cappaert)

I love this book. It opened me up to so many possibilities that I didn’t know existed in Excel. The author really helps you build these skills though thoughtful exercises. She uses her real-world experience to open the “black-box” behind graphing techniques. I can’t wait to use these skills for my next batch of research projects. The competition at the professional conferences will be amazed by our ninja skills. (John O. Elliott)

This run-to-read and easy-to-use book can boost your visual presentation by making it right to the point! (Shun-Yung Kevin Wang)

Effective Data Visualization sets a new standard for the practical presentation data using Excel. It provides impressive graphics and hands on details on when and  how to present them to various audiences. Any instructor who works with students seeking an advanced professional degree should consider adopting this text.

This book is an excellent guide for creating innovative and intentional graphics that can frequently speak for themselves. Stephanie not only shows you how to create visually appealing charts and graphics, but she also explains why it matters.
