Expressiveness A set of facts is expressible in a visual language if the sentences (i.e. the visualizations) in the language express all the facts in the set of data, and only the facts in the data.
Effectiveness A visualization is more effective than another visualization if the information conveyed by one visualization is more readily perceived than the information in the other visualization.
Design Principles [Mackinlay 86]

Tell the truth and nothing but the truth (don’t lie, and don’t lie by omission)
Use encodings that people decode better (where better = faster and/or more accurate)

Gestalt principles provide high-level guidelines
