As a senior developer, I'm often skeptical of technical books, but Lying with Visualizations: Seeing Isn't Believing surprised me. The authors don't just explain how things work—they explain why they work that way, which is crucial for truly understanding these concepts. The sections on Media Literacy are worth the price alone.
The section on optimization in Lying with Visualizations: Seeing Isn't Believing is brilliant. I applied their recommendations to our legacy codebase and saw a 40% performance improvement.
