Book excerpt: Born in Scotland over 250 years ago, William Playfair was a dreamer who ñsaw the world differently from other people.î Unfortunately, this skill didnÍt easily translate into the fame and fortune he hoped for. In fact, it often got him into trouble with family, friends and bosses. But WillÍs innovative vision did inspire a big idea that would set him apart: he turned numbers into pictures by creating line graphs, bar graphs and pie charts! Numbers as pictures? ThereÍs an idea thatÍs off the charts!
