DESCRIPTION:
--International Journal of Performability Engineering . It is the most comprehensive treatise on the subject. The book comes with a DVD for audio and video illustrations. The reviewer has no doubt that the book more than adequately serves the purpose for which it was written. This book is a must for all scientists and researchers. The imaginary audience of different members with varied interests and purposes attending the presentation and illustrating how their expectations can be met by the presenter, makes the reading of the book very lively and interesting
When scientists give a talk, the audience ('guests') expects the title of the talk to determine presentation content, they require understandable slides, and they demand visible and audible scientific authority. In addition, the book goes in-depth over the treatment of questions by examining the motives and style of the questioners, and advising on how best to answer to each type of questioner. To each expectation corresponds a set of skills: personal (voice, host qualities, time control), technical (presentation tools and slide design),

Now, we can, with this thorough but straightforward guide that is both timeless and timely. In an age where information is expanding exponentially, the challenge of the scientist is not expanding, but narrowi. ZRT said Despite high intelligence and an exhaustive understanding of their research. Despite high intelligence and an exhaustive understanding of their research topic, many scientists fail to effectively communicate their groundbreaking results with others outside their field. This problem, experienced by well-qualified and sophomoric scientists alike, does not solely lie in the use of technical jargon and archaic. "I learned how to really use PowerPoint!" according to Kindle Customer. Thank you, Jean-Luc, for enlightening the scientific world - myself included - about this important realm! Your work opened new horizons for me and has improved how I look at doing PowerPoint or Keynote presentations. While the method might be a little more difficult in the beginning, it more than pays for itself in the delivery a
