Michael,

   You need to become familiar with the works of Edward Tufte, the dean of
complex data visualization <www.edwardtufte.com/>.

   "Edward Rolf Tufte is an American statistician and professor emeritus of
political science, statistics, and computer science at Yale University. He
is noted for his writings on information design and as a pioneer in the
field of data visualization." -- Wikipedia

   Happy reading!

Rich
