The science and art of scientific presentations

I always recommend Edward Tufte’s book The Visual Display of Quantitative Information” and what he says about data ink

  1. Above all else show data.
  2. Maximize the data-ink ratio.
  3. Erase non-data-ink.
  4. Erase redundant data-ink.
  5. Revise and edit.
