Data Visualisation with R : 100 Examples

Abstract

This book is a translation of the German book “Datendesign mit R” that was published 2014 by Open Source Press. Due to the encouraging strong interest in the German edition Springer Verlag offered to publish an English translation. First of all I would like to thank Ralf Gerstner from Springer for this and for his helpful suggestions for improvement, as well as Annika Brun for translating most of the text, Colin Marsh for copy editing, and Katja Diederichs for converting all scripts from German to English. Last year I benefited a lot from a communication with Antony Unwin. His book “Graphical Data Analysis with R” can be seen as complementary tomy own:while this one focusses on presentation of graphics, you will benefit from his book if you are interested in exploring data graphically.
