I thought that you might be interested in this opportunity--Tufte is 
an exceptional person and his work is effective and beautiful.

Please let Amy know by Monday if you'd like to be added to her list.

Thanks,
Sally


>>In March, Edward Tufte will be coming to Boston in March to give 
>>his one-day "Presenting Data and Information" course.  If you're 
>>not familiar with Tufte, the NYT calls him "the Leonardo da Vinci 
>>of data" and Wired says the class is "One visionary day....the 
>>insights of this class lead to new levels of understanding both for 
>>creators and viewers of visual displays."  Woodie Flowers also 
>>HIGHLY recommends it.  Read all about it at:

>>I'm trying to find at least 10 people interested in attending, 
>>since if we all register together, there's a 25% discount, from 
>>$320 to only $240.  This fee includes all three books, Visual 
>>Explanations, Envisioning Information, and The Visual Display of 
>>Quantitative Information, and the 15" x 22" Napoleon's March poster 
>>(all worth about $140).
>>The one-day course meets in Boston from 10:00 am to 4:30 pm on 
>>March 1, 2, 3, or 4.  We don't all need to go to the same session 
>>to get the discount.
>>
>>Please let me know by Monday, Dec 8 if you'd like to go, and which 
>>day you'd like to go.  I will need to register all of us at the 
>>same time to get the discount (and I'll need a check from you soon 
>>afterwards so I don't destroy my credit rating).
>>
>>Feel free to pass this message along if you know of others who 
>>might be interested!

>>Thanks,
