In general I was very happy with this book. The selected dashboards that were presented were good representations of what can be needed in different situations. The accompanying explanations helped make sense why decisions were appropriate, or what might be improved. The quality of the color print made the illustrations easy on the eyes and there wasn't guesswork about what was being included in a dashboard or what color combination was involved. My only criticism was that the layout could have been improved- text would frequently reference a screenshot that wasn't visible until the page was turned. Review: Practical, Easy on the Eyes, Slight Overlap with Few - I just got mine in the mail and certainly have not read it, but I've skimmed every page. From a CFO's perspective, love it! Just a couple more observations which one reviewer has already addressed: 1. You don't read this book. I suppose you could. It's a reference book. I'll be hitting several of the chapters that are very pragmatic and relevant to my situation. 2. If you see Andy Cotgreave's name on this book, don't worry about it. Yeah, he's a beast and over the top like his co-authors, but there is something for everyone--novices, beginners, intermediates, and pros. There is something for everyone here. 3. And that leaves me to a new, slightly controversial comment. No criticism aimed at Stephen Few. I own all of his books. But The Big Book of Dashboards is practical. Interested in visualizing your NPS data? No problem. Sales dashboards? Check. I only bring this up because I almost didn't buy the book since I owned all of Few's. There is some overlap, but you will not be disappointed. I only have one gripe while still giving 5 stars. I want sample files. It appears many visuals were completed in Tableau, right? Backup files, Please. That would be great. Otherwise, this book is an easy 5 stars. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #94,011 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #21 in Enterprise Applications #52 in Running Meetings & Presentations (Books) #136 in Computer Science (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 920 Reviews | ## Images ![The Big Book of Dashboards: Visualizing Your Data Using Real-World Business Scenarios - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71OZWPlvN0L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Must-Have For Tableau Dashboard Developers *by D***. on October 24, 2024* This book is a must have for many data visualization specialists, particularly if you use Tableau. In general I was very happy with this book. The selected dashboards that were presented were good representations of what can be needed in different situations. The accompanying explanations helped make sense why decisions were appropriate, or what might be improved.

My only criticism was that the layout could have been improved- text would frequently reference a screenshot that wasn't visible until the page was turned. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Practical, Easy on the Eyes, Slight Overlap with Few *by M***Y on May 3, 2017* I just got mine in the mail and certainly have not read it, but I've skimmed every page. From a CFO's perspective, love it! Just a couple more observations which one reviewer has already addressed: 1. You don't read this book. I suppose you could. It's a reference book.

I can't say that the book was revolutionary and I didn't exclaim "Wow!" or "Ah!" at any point while reading it, but it gives some solid examples of dashboards and thoughtful insights. The book focuses on the construction and logic behind dashboarding using some standard examples (hospital activity, sales, financials), so if you are looking for the nitty gritty of how to build these visualizations you need to go back to your Tableau 101. This is about figuring out the best way to convey lots of information without overloading the reader. This will become a reference book in my department and I foresee pulling it out for users to give examples of dashboarding ideas. I only wish there would have been more before and after examples. It is helpful to see what people are starting with and the thought process that created the final product. Overall, it is a helpful book that will guide data visualizers to the next level. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Big Book of Dashboards: Visualizing Your Data Using Real-World Business Scenarios - Storytelling with Data: A Data Visualization Guide for Business Professionals - Better Data Visualizations: A Guide for Scholars, Researchers, and Wonks --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ro/products/41547902-the-big-book-of-dashboards-visualizing-your-data-using-real](https://www.desertcart.ro/products/41547902-the-big-book-of-dashboards-visualizing-your-data-using-real) --- *Product available on Desertcart Romania* *Store origin: RO* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
