Most Helpful Customer Reviews   5 of 5 people found the following review helpful: All the advice you need in one slim volume, 24 Nov 2003 By  "neilpettinger" - See all my reviews This is an excellent book. If everybody who produced tables and charts were to read and digest even a tenth of what it says, then the business world would run ten times as smoothly! It combines a lot of theory from a lot of different sources and packages it into a very practical book that can be either read cover-to-cover in one go, or dipped into as and when needed. The tone is fairly prescriptive - perhaps a little too unequivocal at times. I run training courses in communicating information and have encountered some of the arguments made against - for example - the use of gridlines in tables or the use of 'snappy' titles for charts. So perhaps a slight criticism would be that the book could've recognised more of the arguments against some of its precepts. But that is a very minor quibble. Let's face it, textbooks need to be prescriptive to be any good and this one certainly packs a lot of prescriptions into its 140 pages. Amazon could do a lot worse than offer this book as a 'Perfect Partner' every time someone orders Microsoft Excel!  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
