Setup of this book

Learning D3 can be a bit overwhelming. There are a large number of APIs to learn, you need to think about styling, animations, and formatting your data in the correct way. To help you with these subjects, this book will use an example-driven approach to show you the various features of D3. Each chapter will have a number of examples in the sources accompanying this book, and in each of the chapters we'll walk through these examples and explain what is happening, and in this way show you what can be done by D3.
