The first edition has simply been the most complete, effective, single source for learning
D3 and visualization on the web from scratch. I have recommended it countless times.
—Erik Cunningham, Soware Engineer, Twitter
I can’t think of a better way to understand D3. It’s funny and engaging for a
nonprogrammer, deep and detailed for an engineer, and filled with practical
and visual bliss for the designer.
—Xaquín G.V., Visual Storyteller, formerly the Guardian,
The New York Times, and National Geographic
Scott Murray is the master of making technical instruction entertaining and fun.
I wish more books were written like this.
—Riley Rustad, Demand Planning—Data and Analytics, Adidas
Interactive Data Visualization for the Web, based on Scott’s outstanding online tutorials,
remains the clearest and most accessible introduction to D3. It’s even moderately funny.
—Kevin Quealy, Graphics Editor, The New York Times
I recommended the first edition to countless people, technical and nontechnical alike.
Scott’s ability to articulate key concepts concisely to a broad audience, without
oversimplifying, is unparalleled and refreshingly jargon-free. The first go-to book in the
canon of web-based data visualization? Definitely.
—Tom Longmate, Freelance Design Technologist
I have a bookshelf behind my desk full of reference books; but Scott Murray’s book is
never on that shelf, because it’s constantly on my desk.
—Gail Zuniga, Information Designer
I. Love. This. Book. In classes, bootcamps, and tutorials, I’ve worked hard to learn
JavaScript in many ways. Nothing has been clearer or easier to work with than this book.
I understand D3 and JavaScript better than ever before.
—Wesley Ratko, Geospatial Data Analyst
The most accessible introduction to d3 so far—invaluable for teaching purposes.
—Alan Smith, Data Visualization Editor, Financial Times
