Now in color, this edition of Learning Tableau will empower you to bring data to life and make better business decisions

Learning Tableau 2022 helps you get started with Tableau and data visualization, but it does more than just cover the basic principles. It helps you understand how to analyze and communicate data visually, and articulate data stories using advanced features.

This new edition is updated with Tableau's latest features, such as dashboard extensions, Explain Data, and integration with CRM Analytics (Einstein Analytics), which will help you harness the full potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and predictive modeling in Tableau.

After an exploration of the core principles, this book will teach you how to use table and level of detail calculations to extend and alter default visualizations, build interactive dashboards, and master the art of telling stories with data.

You'll learn about visual statistical analytics and create different types of static and animated visualizations and dashboards for rich user experiences. We then move on to interlinking different data sources with Tableau's Data Model capabilities, along with maps and geospatial visualization. You will further use Tableau Prep Builder's ability to efficiently clean and structure data.

By the end of this book, you will be proficient in implementing the powerful features of Tableau 2022 to improve the business intelligence insights you can extract from your data.

Review

"Data literacy is the only way to unlock the power of data and optimize your investments on technology. Joshua N. Milligan's new book is well-designed, with a very good flow and step-by-step examples that don't require pre-existing industry knowledge... by reading it, you're on the right path to learning a market leader solution that will provide massive value to you and your organisation."

Roberto Andreoli, Senior Director Solution Engineering Tableau, South EMEA, Salesforce



"This book strikes a delicate balance between succinctness and completeness, and provides you with a thorough, readable, and practical guide. Learning Tableau 2022 will get you up and running with Tableau in next to no time, from simple visualizations to building advanced analytics using multiple data sources, all while learning from Joshua's real-world experience. I highly recommend it to any new or existing Tableau customer looking to transform their business with data."

Mark Tossell, Lead Solution Engineer, Tableau , a Salesforce Company



"For those looking to get started with Tableau or take their skills to new heights, Learning Tableau 2022 is a great place to start unlocking the unlimited potential of data. Milligan has honed his skills and demonstrated them at the highest level, and this fifth edition captures his recipe for Tableau mastery. For anyone looking to use data to make decisions, this book is a must-have in your arsenal."

Blair Hutchinson, Senior Product Manager, Tableau, a Salesforce Company



"This book is packed to the limits, and I highly recommend it to anyone seeking to learn Tableau or stay on top of it in 2022. Emphasis where emphasis is due (table calculations, level of detail, data preparation) combined with easy-to-follow examples make for a great balance of detail and ease of reading. It covers every bit of Tableau in a concise and easy-to-follow way, and every reader will find something new or some kind of "aha" moment in it. Also, given its wide range of topics, the book is a great resource for whenever your job requires you to deal with a specific topic for the first time."

Steffen Volkerding, Tableau Ambassador



"I wish I had this book when I learnt Tableau by myself 8 years ago... it will not only provide clear explanations of complex topics, but also hands-on training and updates on the latest features to keep your knowledge up-to-date. I will personally use the way Joshua describes dimensions, measures, and the concepts of discrete and continuous data in the future, as I found it simple and accurate."

Annabelle Rincon, Tableau Center of Enablement Lead (Swiss Bank), Tableau Social Media Ambassador and Visionary, and co-leader of the Tableau Analytics User Group and Data+Women Zrich
