Hi there,
Speakers, UG leaders, or anyone else interested in improving your
presentations, let me send you our new book "slide:ology."
Garr Reynolds (Presentation Zen) just wrote on his blog
<http://www.presentationzen.com/presentationzen/2008/08/slideology-my-favorite-presentation-book-of-all-time.html>
"Nancy Duarte, the Principle of Duarte Design (the firm behind the
creation of Al Gore's Oscar-winning presentations), has published a
presentation book for the rest of us. It's called 'slide:ology: The Art
and Science of Creating Great Presentations.' 'slide:ology' is
practical, it's highly visual, and it's beautiful. I love this book."
Watch the book trailer here.
