Description

A scientific revolution began at the end of the 18th century with the invention and popularization of the graphic display of data by the remarkable Scot, William Playfair. His marvelous Atlas showed how much could be learned if one plotted data atheoretically and looked for suggestive patterns. Those patterns provide evidence, albeit circumstantial, on which to build new science. This full color reproduction of two of his classic works, with new explanatory material, makes Playfairs wisdom widely available for the first time in two centuries.
