It provides impressive graphics and hands on details on when and how to present them to various audiences.

It opened me up to so many possibilities that I didn't know existed in Excel. The author really helps you build these skills though thoughtful exercises. She uses her real-world experience to open the "black-box" behind graphing techniques. I can't wait to use these skills for my next batch of research projects. The competition at the professional conferences will be amazed by our ninja skills. -- John O.
