Science in color: visualizing achromatic knowledge
Color makes its way into natural science images as early as the research process. It serves for self-reflection and for communication within the scientific community. However, color does not follow a standard in the natural sciences: its meaning is contingent, even though cultur…

Undergraduate engineering students need good mathematics skills. This textbook supports this need by placing a strong emphasis on visualization and the methods and tools needed across the whole of engineering. The visual approach is emphasized, and excessive proofs and derivatio…
This introductory text presents basic principles of social science research through maps, graphs, and diagrams. The authors show how concept maps and mind maps can be used in quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods research, using student-friendly examples and classroom-bas…
Information Visualization: Perception for Design explores the art and science of why we see objects the way we do. Based on the science of perception and vision, Colin Ware presents the key principles at work for a wide range of applications-resulting in visualization of improve…
Mediating Climate Change explores how practices of mediation and visualisation shape how we think about, address and act upon climate change. Through historical and contemporary case studies drawn from science, media, politics and culture, Doyle identifies the representational p…
