★★★★★

Lying with Visualizations: Seeing Isn't Believing offers a compelling take on Data Visualization, though not without flaws. While the treatment of Critical Thinking is excellent, I found the sections on Critical Thinking less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about Data Visualization that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Visual Manipulation more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for Visual Manipulation will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on Visual Manipulation, if not the definitive work.

I absolutely loved Lying with Visualizations: Seeing Isn't Believing! It completely changed my perspective on Data Visualization. At first I wasn't sure about Media Literacy, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains Deceptive Charts is so clear and relatable - it's like they're talking directly to you. I've already recommended this to all my friends who are interested in Critical Thinking. What I appreciated most was how the book made Data Visualization feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!
