Found cool classic book — “Semiology of Graphics Diagrams, Networks, Maps” by Jacques Bertin, French cartographer and expert in visualisation of information. It was originally published in 1967, but is still a viable source on the theory of information design — if you miss the depth of analysis, foundations and motivation behind — it is definitely something worth to look at.
