Whether you‘re a novice at graphing or want to improve the graphs you already use in your work, Creating More Effective Graphs will help you develop the kind of clear, accurate, and well-designed graphs that allow your data to be understood. |

Creating More Effective Graphs is not a how-to book on software use. Rather, it provides useful graph forms and principles for presenting data. Three books that complement Creating More Effective Graphs by showing the reader how to use software follow. Also, scroll down for two web sites that teach Excel users how to implement some of the methods using Excel.
| R
Graphics by Paul Murrell describes the use of R, powerful open source
software that is available for downloading at no cost. The recommendations
of Creating More Effective Graphs can be implemented using R
software. Much of the information contained in R Graphics is not
available in any other book. |

| Walkenbach’s
book is highly recommended to those who use Excel to draw charts.
Excel Charts tells how to get the effects you want with charts
drawn with Excel. It shows how to produce charts you didn’t think Excel
could produce. | |
| Modern Applied Statistics with S (MASS) provides invaluable help on the use of the S language with either S-Plus or R. I thank the authors for the many hours this book has saved me. MASS covers much more than graphs; any user of S-Plus or R will benefit from its examples. |
