Tufte: Visual Explanations

So lucky! I found a copy of Visual Explanations in its shrinkwrap at the Strand. Only $27 too. A couple years ago I asked someone that was working there if they had any of the Tufte’s books. He quickly checked their DB, and shook his head no. He added that he rarely saw any of Tufte’s books come in. So, I was rather surprised to see Visual Explanations sitting on the top shelf of the Graphic Design bookcase this evening. From the date on the sticker, it looks like I grabbed it the same day it came in.
