    Better communication through less data
    Most of us are not trained graphic artists. We don't really know how 2 produce or deliver effective visual presentations. Nancy Duarte says professional communicators need 2 learn how 2 create visual stories that connect with our audience. She explains the 'why' of good design. For example, we presenters should realize that data slides are not really about the data. They are about the *meaning* of the data. That is, a slide's value is determined not by the amount of information it contains, but by how clearly it communicates conclusions & insights.

    Easy 2 understand, well explained, full of examples - a great book.
    This book explains HOW should you make your presentation in order 2 get FULL effect & WHY should you make it that way. It explains all the concepts & challenges behind most presentations, the risks & the questions one faces.

    I really enjoyed this book because it explained 2 me the many mistakes we make & all the preconceptions we have when we think about what a good presentation is.

    I've been doing presentations 4 a long time & I am pretty successful with them. But the truth is all I knew before reading this book was based on intuition & some common sense. This book explained everything I knew & also a thousand more things I did not know.

    It has lots of examples & it is very easy 2 read.
    Recommended.

    Slide:ology
    Slide:ology tops my list of titles that have had an impact on me. After only skimming through the book it changed the way I think about & create my training presentations. I loaned it 2 a co-worker who then purchased her own copy. Two other co-workers also wanted 2 read it & I have since purchased 12 more copies 2 give 2 people throughout my organization. Slide:ology is a quick, easy, interesting & powerful read. I recommend it 2 anyone who has 2 create presentations.

    Great practical book
    I started applying the techniques written in the book while still reading it. My team had 2 prepare presentation 4 a offsite that was supposed 2 set the context 4 our development over the next few years. Structuring the presentation as described in the book & allowing people 2 concentrate on the presenter instead on the slides we managed 2 make the biggest impact among the teams presenting.
    This book is great practical guide 4 every person who plans 2 present in front of other people. It will teach you how 2 structure your slide deck, what parts are in abundance & what is necessary; how 2 chose colors & words & most importantly - how 2 tell your story.


    No matter where you are on the organizational ladder, the odds are high that you've delivered a high-stakes presentation 2 your peers, your boss, your customers, or the general public. Presentation software is one of the few tools that requires professionals 2 think visually on an almost daily basis. But unlike verbal skills, effective visual expression is not easy, natural, or actively taught in schools or business training programs. slide:ology fills that void.

    Written by Nancy Duarte, President & CEO of Duarte Design, the firm that created the presentation 4 Al Gore's Oscar-winning film, An Inconvenient Truth, this book is full of practical approaches 2 visual story development that can be applied by anyone. The book combines conceptual thinking & inspirational design, with insightful case studies from the world's leading brands. With slide:ology you'll learn to:

    • Connect with specific audiences
    • Turn ideas into informative graphics
    • Use sketching & diagramming techniques effectively
    • Create graphics that enable audiences 2 process information easily
    • Develop truly influential presentations
    • Utilize presentation technology 2 your advantage

    Millions of presentations & billions of slides have been produced -- & most of them miss the mark. slide:ology will challenge your traditional approach 2 creating slides by teaching you how 2 be a visual thinker. And it will help your career by creating momentum 4 your cause.
