Most visualization tutorials teach a library's syntax — call this function, set that parameter — and stop there, leaving the genuinely important questions unanswered: which chart type actually fits this question, and is your chart honestly representing your data, or accidentally misleading whoever looks at it? Data Visualization with Python opens not with a function call, but with two datasets sharing an identical mean and standard deviation that look completely different once actually plotted — and builds every chapter around that same kind of concrete, honest demonstration.
What You'll Actually Build
- Matplotlib foundations — figures, axes, and the full plotting pipeline, from precise pixel-level control
- Every essential chart type: bar, line, scatter, and histogram, used correctly
- Statistical visualization with Seaborn — distributions, KDE, box plots, and violin plots
- Correlation heatmaps and pair plots that reveal real relationships in data
- Time series and categorical data visualization, done right
- Genuinely interactive charts and dashboards with Plotly
- Geospatial visualizations — real maps from real data
- A complete capstone — a full data visualization project, start to finish
- Three complementary tools, learned together — Matplotlib for precise control, Seaborn for statistical convenience, Plotly for genuine interactivity.
- A full chapter on design principles and visual storytelling — not abstract theory, but immediately tied to a working example.
- Honesty as a core principle, not an afterthought — you'll learn exactly how charts mislead, and how to make sure yours never do.
- Full exercise solutions across every chapter.
Written for readers who've already completed at least one earlier book in this series, or have equivalent working knowledge of Python and pandas DataFrames. No prior visualization or design experience is assumed at all. You're exactly the right reader if you've written basic pandas code and want to actually show your data instead of only printing it as text, if you've built occasional charts but want a genuinely systematic skillset instead of copy-pasted snippets, or if you're preparing for a data role where colleagues expect clear, professional visualizations — not just accurate models.
What You'll Be Able to Do
By the final page, you'll choose the right chart type for any real question, build statistically rigorous and genuinely interactive visualizations, design dashboards a real audience can explore, and tell an honest, clear, compelling story with your data, every time.
Scroll up and start building charts people actually understand.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
