Visualizing Technical Information : A Cultural Critique Hardback
by Kent L. Koppelman
Part of the Baywood's Technical Communications series
Hardback
Description
Visualizing Technical Information: A Cultural Critique demonstrates the ways in which the leading technical visuals of information design-graphs, charts, diagrams, tables, illustrations, and information visualization-are designed and read.
Using genre theory as an analytical tool, the author makes the argument that problems with these visual forms are not necessarily the result of a designer's poor decisions or a reader's poor interpretation skills.
Instead, there may be inherent problems in the visual genres themselves that are a direct result of their cultural history and current use.
