The author looks into the possibilities of using linked bar charts to gain an understanding of the relationship between several categorical variables. This approach is useful when the sample size is small. He introduces the spine plots for situations where bar charts are difficult to interpret. These are a variant of traditional bar charts where the width instead of the height of the bars varies.
