By Dewey, Marina Del Rey, CA

"Superb read along with Tufte's others. After reading all three published up to that time, I attended one of Tufte's public seminars which was outstanding. I met Tufte in graduate school about 1970, when I invited him to come over from Princeton to Penn to speak to a graduate students association of which I was president. I was pleasantly suprised at how many faculty members showed up. Tufte's reputation was growing rapidly.

He is undoubtedly the greatest writer ever on how to analyze and display information. His books are works of art as well as great science."
