Tufte did not explicitly spell out his ultimate intentions in that first volume of his trilogy, but it has turned out that the whole series has been produced according to a precise schema--as he now indicates in the introduction to Visual Explanations , which was just published by his company, . The Visual Display of Quantitative Information had been devoted to pictures of numbers, he explains--"how to depict data and enforce statistical honesty" whether the subject is traffic deaths or the distribution of galaxies.
Tufte has produced three books that make it possible to see the dynamics of linguistic grammar in a brilliantly synesthetic way--books that succeed in this task by not having grammar as their ostensible subject at all.
This tour de force--written, designed, and published by Tufte himself--was immediately recognized as a classic by data wonks and makers of fine books alike.
Aware of the parallels between visual grammar and written grammar, Tufte frequently makes direct comparisons that enhance one's understanding of each.
It is a map, Tufte noted, that illustrates "how multivariate complexity can be subtly integrated into graphical architecture, integrated so gently and unobtrusively that viewers are hardly aware that they are looking into a world of four or five dimensions."
