Now, there lots more sources of information you might look at Ray Lyons "Best Practices in Graphical Data Presentation" And Dona Wong, who has written a book called, "The Wall Street Journal guide to information graphics the do's and don'ts of presenting data facts and figures".  And I should point out that Edward Tufte was Dona Wong's thesis adviser. So not surprisingly, she's taken many of the things that she learned from Tufte and applied them in her role as the main person changing the way the Wall Street Journal presented its data visually.
