Data has become the most powerful tool in business today, and telling its story effectively is critical. Yet one of the best communicators—color—is the most neglected tool in data visualization. With this book, DATAcated founder Kate Strachnyi provides the ultimate guide to the correct use of color for representing data in graphs, charts, tables, and infographics.

Ideal for data and business analysts, data scientists, and others who design infographics and data visualizations, this practical resource explores color tips and tricks, including the theories behind them and why they work the way they do. ColorWise covers the psychology, history, and culture of many different colors. This book is also a useful teaching tool for learning about proper use of color for data storytelling techniques and dashboarding.
