Customer Reviews
Good appetizer, main course missing
Book is a good compilation of tools and some practical techniques for a good presentation. However, it is shallow in many areas. It introduces many concepts but does not go in depth. if you are already someone who has reasonable knowledge about good presentation skills, you might not get too much out of it.
Very Practical Book
This book gives very practical advise for creating better looking presentations. While other books talk in generalities about what makes a great presentation, Jan gives specific techniques that will make your presentations stand out from an average one. The interactivity of the iBook book format really helps to understand the concepts being presented.
