When our author met Robert Spence briefly at the INTERACT 2009 conference
in Uppsala, Sweden, Spence mentioned that there was a good book about
visualization for display at the Springer book stand. Our author
had already seen that there was"
something"
available about this topic – but actually it was two books: a new
introductory book by Riccardo Mazza and a second, much more advanced
one by Chaomei Chen. The big question for him was: Which book had
Robert Spence been referring to? He decided to buy both, and because
Mazza's book is new and an introductory textbook that
"
focuses on the human aspects of the process of visualization rather
than the algorithmic or graphic design aspects,"
he realized that this was the book he should have read first when
initially diving into the topic of visualization. Unfortunately,
the book did not appear until this year.
