Resources: Getting Started
Tony Karrer, in his blog post on Visual Thinking, asked what he should do to get started with visual thinking. When we launch the new community site in February, we’ll start a much more comprehensive list, but for now here a few of key pieces to get started:
- Visual Language: Global Communication for the 21st Century by Bob Horn
- Understanding Comics by Scott McCloud (Harper Paperbacks, 1994)
- The Visual Display of Quantitative Information by Edward Tufte
To dig even deeper in some of the categories here are just a few other resources:
- Show Me the Numbers: Designing Tables and Graphs to Enlighten by Stephen Few
- Wordless Diagrams by Nigel Holmes (Bloomsbury, 2005)
- Graphic Facilitation: Transforming Groups with the Power of Visual Listening by David Sibbet (The Grove)
- Beyond Bullet Points by Cliff Atkinson (Microsoft Press, 2007)
- Site Seeing: a Visual Approach to Web Usability by Luke Wroblewski (Wiley, 2002)
- Idea Mapping by Jamie Nast (Wiley, 2006)
