Unexpected insights from Lying with Visualizations: Seeing Isn't Believing

Posted by Devon Green 23 hours ago

As a senior developer, I'm often skeptical of technical books, but Lying with Visualizations: Seeing Isn't Believing surprised me. The authors don't just explain how things work—they explain why they work that way, which is crucial for truly understanding these concepts. The sections on Media Literacy are worth the price alone.

I'm about halfway through Lying with Visualizations: Seeing Isn't Believing and it's already changed how I think about debugging. The systematic approach they describe has saved me hours this week alone.

What sets Lying with Visualizations: Seeing Isn't Believing apart is its focus on practical application. Each chapter includes exercises that challenge you to apply what you've learned, and the companion website provides additional resources. I've already incorporated several techniques into my daily work.
