definitely second Tufte, lots of good info on consolidation and creating coherent charts and maps from large datasets

I read Tufte during my PhD and it was a lifesaver. It is good in many levels: Not only for the lessons in doing good graphics, but also on the history of charts. (I was surprised by the history of the first scatterplot)
