This is a great compilation of theories for visualisation, that are well explained. The described guidelines for designing visualisations are essentials to UG students first adventuring in this area. Students can see the theories in practice through the vast quantity of visual examples throughout the book, that show dos and don'ts. For a long time this has been a must needed book, which draws from renowned authors and well-known theories, that can now be found in one place. A great starting point to the area of visualisation.
