Great book for presenters
A must read for communicators, especially those who want to change the world! The book is well-written and even well-designed visually, which is what you'd expect from an expert presentation designer. Because each section is concise, it's easy to read. The book includes great examples (case studies), including Ronald Reagan, Steve Jobs, Benjamin Zander, among others. It is clear that the author put a good deal of time and enthusiasm into creating the layout, finding and creating visual elements and atmosphere for their book. Each page has a picture of its own.
