"Handbook of Data Visualization" ed. by Chun-houh Chen, Wolfgang Härdle, Antony Unwin

This volume gives an overview of modern data visualization methods, both in theory and practice.

There are definitive chapters on graphical tools such as mosaic plots, parallel coordinate plots and linked views.

There are chapters dedicated to graphical methodology for particular areas of statistics, for example Bayesian analysis, genomic data and cluster analysis, as well as chapters on software for graphics.
