"Graphics gives a visible form to the notion of `data analysis,' which is more accessible in its graphic incarnation than in its mathematical one. Without such processing, we are stuck on the level of personal opinion.

About this product

Product Information

Originally published in French in 1967, Semiology of Graphics holds a significant place in the theory of information design. Founded on Jacques Bertin's practical experience as a cartographer, Part One of this work is an unprecedented attempt to synthesize principles of graphic communication with the logic of standard rules applied to writing and topography. Part Two brings Bertin's theory to life, presenting a close study of graphic techniques including shape, orientation, color, texture, volume, and size in an array of more than 1,000 maps and diagrams.
