Edward Tufte has a new book out and shipping soon! Beautiful Evidence it is his first major book in nine years and the result of many years of writing and discussing it online via his website. Check out the proof pages at his site and then order your copy today!

Or better yet, register for one of his courses, $360 for a full day and the best investment you (or your company) is likely to ever make in your training. I know that for me it was the only professional training course I have ever taken that even now over 7 years after I took it I think about often and his insights and suggestions have influenced much of how I think about and see the world. As I write my own book about Economics and build a consulting practice around it, the approaches we’ll take to visualizing highly complex systems and information will start with the lessons of Edward Tufte.

I hope that my copy will have arrived in time for WalkMesh. WalkMesh will be June 15th, starting in South Park in San Francisco at 8:30 am - please join me there and on our walking tour and conversations. If I have my copy by then, I will bring it to share.
