From the way we make policies at the highest levels, all the way down to our daily business practices, we try to be informed by data. The ability to not only analyze data but also to present it clearly and compellingly has become an important part of many people's work. In clear, well-organized chapters, Chrisinger and Brodsky introduce key concepts for communicating data and its usefulness. Across the fields of public health, health policy, and public policy more generally, but also in many other places, policymakers, advocates, and researchers will benefit from the big-picture overview and practical details presented by the authors"--
