The Biographic series presents an entirely new way of looking at the
lives of the world's greatest thinkers and creatives. It takes the 50
defining facts, dates, thoughts, habits and achievements of each
subject, and uses infographics to convey all of them in vivid snapshots.
Each Biographic title is designed to be as entertaining as it is
informative.
Timelines not only pinpoint significant dates, but
set them in the context and culture of their times. Dynamic maps locate
biographical events alongside other points of interest. Character traits
are illuminated by visual comparisons.
Many people know that
David Bowie (1947 2016) was an iconic singer, songwriter and actor,
whose lyrics, performances and ever-changing persona were at the heart
of pop culture for over five decades. What, perhaps, they don't know is
that he smoked 80 cigarettes a day, acted in 27 films, sold over 140
million albums and once shared a Berlin apartment with Iggy Pop.
Biographic: Bowie presents an instant impression of his life, work and
fame, with an array of irresistible facts and figures converted into
infographics to reveal the artist behind the music.
