+1 million. That book changed my life, at least as far as information presentation is concerned. It's that good. If you ever make a chart or a graph, you owe it to yourself and your viewers to read that book.

Was there a specific book you had in mind? There are 8 at the link.
"The Visual Display of Quantitative Information" is the one I had in mind. Sorry, I should've checked the link.
Of those, Visual Display of Quantitative Information and Beautiful Evidence are my favorites.
Accompany those with the classic How To Lie With Statistics.
