Visual Capitalist
Our New Book “Signals” is Officially Published!
Earlier this year, we launched a campaign to help fund our second ever book, Signals: Charting the New Direction of the Global Economy. Thanks to over 1,200 backers, we reached our funding target, making the book a reality.
After months of research and design, we submitted Signals to the printers in September, and we are delighted to announce that it is officially available for purchase.
What’s Signals all About?
Did you know, that over the next three years humanity will have created more new data than in all of human history combined? More data inevitably means more complexity, which makes it harder to narrow down the root causes that will lead to future trends.
Our new data-driven book identifies clear takeaways—called ‘signals’— that are shaping the future of the global economy. Every chapter uses powerful charts and data visualizations to put each signal into perspective and simplify complex, global trends.
Each signal covered in the book comes with:
- A graphical road map to explain its journey
- A data-driven dashboard
- An indication of the signal’s overall strength
- Supporting charts and data visualizations that put each signal into perspective, showing its potential impact on the global economy
Still to get your copy of Signals? No problem, you can place your order through the Visual Capitalist Store below.
To learn the full backstory of Signals, please visit our Kickstarter page, where we shared regular updates.
Thanks again to everyone who supported us along the way, we can’t wait to hear what you make of our latest book.
