MAGIC IN GRAPHS
■■■HERE is a magic in graphs. The profile of a curve reveals in "J "J a flash a whole situation -- the life history of an epidemic, a Mfelp^nic, or an era of prosperity. The curve informs the mind, awakens the imagination, convinces.
Graphs carry the message home. A universal language, graphs convey information directly to the mind. Without complexity there is imaged to the eye a magnitude to be remembered. Words have wings, but graphs interpret. Graphs are pure quantity, stripped of verbal sham, reduced to dimension, vivid, unescapable.
Graphs are all inclusive. No fact is too slight or too great to plot to a scale suited to the eye. Graphs may record the path of an ion or the orbit of the sun, the rise of a civilization, or the acceleration of a bullet, the climate of a century or the varying pressure of a heart beat, the growth of a business, or the nerve reactions of a child.
