"Whenever I am infuriated, I revenge myself with a new diagram.”— Florence Nightingale, 1857

Overview
Florence Nightingale used colorful diagrams to persuade royals and generals to adopt reforms that prevented countless deaths. This volume tells the story of exactly how she did it.

A new illustrated essay by data storyteller RJ Andrews titled “God’s Revenge Upon Murder” chronicles the motivation and craft behind Florence Nightingale and her team. The volume is introduced by Nightingale-historian Lynn McDonald.

The book concludes with a colorful graphic catalog that reproduces both of Nightingale’s coxcomb folios. A complete set of her statistical diagrams includes several foldout charts and a graphic appendix with hand-drawn drafts of her diagrams.
