Description
Speak Data: Artists, Scientists, Thinkers, and Dreamers on How We Live Our Lives in Numbers is a creative work by Georgia Lupi and Philip Cox that presents data not as cold, abstract numbers, but as a language for better understanding people and the world around them. Written in a pop non-fiction style and using colorful infographics and engaging illustrations, the book invites the reader to look at data through the lens of “data humanism” and understand it as a reflection of everyday human behavior.
The book’s core content is based on conversations with 17 prominent leaders in fields as diverse as medicine, art, technology, and psychology, each offering a unique perspective on the power of data. The authors believe that every call, every purchase, and even every step we take produces data that has a story to tell; so by learning to “speak the language of data,” we can gain deeper meaning about our identity, social connections, and hidden patterns in our lives.
