Edward Tufte has made available (for a limited time!) a couple of draft chapters from his forthcoming book, Beautiful Evidence. Advice for the consumer of presentations, the Corrupt Techniques in Evidence Presentations chapter rails against imprecise, equivocating, and deceptive arguments. The chapter on Sparklines (how is this pronounced? “spark lines” or “spar-kleens”?) describes a new kind of inline infographic, no taller than a row of type.
