English only documentation is starting to be a major problem for the scientific python ecosystem. This book provides an introduction to the basic usage of Matplotlib, the underlying structure of the architecture, and several of the high-level libraries built on top of matplotlib. Hopefully, this book will provide the context needed for Chinese speakers to better approach and understand the canonical English documentation of the projects.
Python語言生態圈有一個很主要的問題就是只有英文參考文件。本書介紹了matplotlib套件的基本用法和底層架構，以及建構在Matplotlib套件上幾個高水準的套件(Plotnine、Seaborn和Basemap等)。希望這本書能給中文讀者提供所需的學習內容，更好地幫助讀者學習與了解這些經典的英文技術文件。

When trying to understand or communicate information one usually asks, what is the best visualization(s) I can make? If this question often comes to you and that you tend not to have an answer, then "Beautiful Visualizations with Python" is meant for you. Python is an excellent language for data analysis and visualization. Secondly, the book helps you build a practical toolbox for most visualizations that you may want to create. It strikes a delicate balance between a book that introduces and teaches and a gallery that you can always come back to for ideas. It is not one to throw away after reading. As it is titled, you will learn how to turn data in into beautiful visualizations by making the best choices at every step. Most important for me is that it covers the biggest idea in data visualization in the last 20 years, that is, "The Grammar of Graphics".
當盡力去理解與溝通某人常問的資料資訊時，什麼才是我可以實現的資料視覺化?如果你也經常遇到這個問題，而又沒有答案時，這本書就是專門為你準備的。Python是一門用於資料分析與可視化非常優秀的語言，而這本書可以幫你建立你的工具箱，進一步可以實現你想做的大部分的資料視覺化。這本書不僅能給你介紹、教你資料視覺化，而且能幫你尋找資料視覺化的靈感，兩者兼得。這不是一本你看完就可以束之高閣的書。正如這本書名，你會透過本書一步步的教學模式，學習到如何將資料轉換成優美的圖表。更重要的是，這本書涵蓋了近20年來資料視覺化的核心理念，即「圖形語法」。
