GOOD READS on Information Design

So, being that most of the design work I encounter with my current job displays information and numbers - I thought it would be a great idea to check into books on information design. It's always important to check into the latest design trends, and what I encounter everyday at my job wasn't particularly covered in college (Finance, Statistics, Information design in general) so, I found these amazing books. The first is called Information is Beautiful and is designed and written by author David McCandless. The second and third books are Data Flow and Data Flow 2 (Part II comes out this month, I'm just waiting on the release date!). The Data Flow Series is by Gestalten.

All 3 of these books look beautifully designed- as the designs themselves are on the inside. I can't wait to learn from these books. They are coming in the mail soon, I can hardly wait! Time to add some flair to charts and graphs!
