Visual Thinking for Information Design, Second Edition brings the science of perception to the art of design. The book takes what we now know about perception, cognition and attention and transforms it into concrete advice that students and designers can directly apply.

The book includes hundreds of examples, many in the form of integrated text and full-color diagrams.
