Selection Statement:

I poured over Agoston’s book in my early days as an art and geography student working with color science principles to reveal data patterns in statistical mapping. The author balances accurate technical explanations of color science and color systems with a deft design perspective in just the right proportions. The science I learned from this book is core to my research contributions in computer cartography.
