In the book, major R systems for visualization are discussed, organized by topic and not by system. Anyone doing data analysis will be shown how to use R to generate any of the basic visualizations with the R visualization systems. Further, this book introduces the author's lessR system, which always can accomplish a visualization with less coding than the use of other systems, sometimes dramatically so, and also provides accompanying statistical analyses.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eKey Features\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePresents thorough coverage of the leading R visualization system, ggplot2.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGives specific guidance on using base R graphics to attain visualizations of the same quality as those provided by ggplot2.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e \u003cp\u003eShows how to create a wide range of data visualizations: distributions of categorical and continuous variables, many types of scatterplots including with a third variable, time series, and maps.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInclusion of the various approaches to R graphics organized by topic instead of by system.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePresents the recent work on interactive visualization in R.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDavid W.
