Product Story

This is the collection of informational graphics that examines the intersection of design and communication in one impressively comprehensive tome. Whether it’s a diagram of an offshore oil platform or an amazingly elaborate taxonomy of beer varieties, this book provides the context to understand the art form that defines the Information Age. Selected from popular publications and independent artists alike, these infographics comprise a curated gallery of design that explores everything from the conveyance of raw data (such as a comparison of the sound waves of sonar and whale song) to graphic storytelling (like a cartoon timeline of experimental rocker Frank Zappa’s life). Grouped by four color-coded topics (Location, Time, Category, and Hierarchy), this heavy tome includes 200 projects and more than 400 color examples that illustrate the innovative methods and the intriguing subjects that have given shape to this modern medium. Includes a history of Infographics poster by renowned graphic designer Nigel Holmes. 480 pages. 15" H x 10" W x 2" D. (8 lbs.)
