Figure 9.15 An equilateral tetrahedron is unfolded to illustrate one possible way
of showing the local voting distribution in Scotland. Each triangle shows one of
the 24 possible orders of rank for the four parties. Here they are shaded to show
where the Conservatives came first, second, third or fourth. The central triangle
is where the SNP were placed fourth (labelled as 'Nat' for Nationalists here).
