Robert E. Horn (born 1933) is an American political scientist who taught at Harvard, Columbia, and Sheffield (U.K.) universities, and has been a visiting scholar at Stanford University's Center for the Study of Language and Information.[1] He is known for the development of information mapping.[2]
Overview
Bob Horn is perhaps best known for his development of information mapping,[3] a method of information development called structured writing suited especially for technical communication.[4]
His latest contributions to the presentation of information have been in the field of visual language.[5] Horn has extended the use of visual language and visual analytics to develop methods—involving large, detailed infographics and argument map murals—for exploring and resolving wicked problems.[6]
