Effective Presentation Skills : A Practical Guide for Better Speaking

---

This book does a good job covering the many basics of making an effective presentation, including dealing with anxiety, personal appearance, planning and preparation. However, it needs to be updated to reflect the many changes in presentation technology (and technology in general) since 1993 that are available to the presenter. For example, to quote from page 55, CD-ROM Players--These read only players (you can t record onto them from your own computer, yet!) can hold a gigantic amount of information. Some disks contain an entire encyclopedia. These devices can store color photographs, video clips, sound clips, huge data bases and other types of information that require a lot of memory. There is new technology available that will allow you to take a photograph, have it transferred to a CD-ROM disk and then bring it up on your computer screen. What next, phones without wires? Overall a good book on the subject of preparing for and delivering presentations as long as you re not looking for any tips on PowerPoint or technology-based presentations.
