Visualizing global trends using graphs: don’t miss this one!

Hans Rosling does his magic with graphical representations. In this video clip he shows how new ways of representing data can provide valuable insights into changes in data over time. He also challenges ways we think about global trends and developments and provides interesting insights to account for some of the patterns in health and economics that are made vivid from the representations.

If you are in any way interested in graphical representations or in global trends in health and economics you won’t be disappointed. A great resource to use for introductory statistics (at any level) and a superb way to demonstrate that a picture can reveal insights far beyond the capabilities of descriptive statistics.
