Summary: Excellent, easy to use resource
Comment: This book is awesome. I am a professional speaker and trainer and it has helped me immensely. Whenever I sit down to write a new seminar, I refer back to its tips to guide me. The best suggestion in the book is to give the audience a selfish reason to listen to you within the first two minutes. David Peoples also suggests writing your closing first so you know where you are headed. All of the tips are easy to understand and relevant. There is quite a bit of discussion about overhead transparencies and I think most people use Powerpoint presentations these days, but most of those concepts for creating effective slides apply to Powerpoint also.
It also gave me a lot of confidence since I knew I had covered all my bases by using this book to prepare. I highly recommend it for those who speak to groups for a living or make presentations as part of their jobs. I am also going to add it to my website as part of my suggested reading list. Buy it!

Summary: The best overall reference for speaking and presentations.
Comment: If you could only have one book on speaking and presentations, this should be the one! I've taken numerous speaking and presentations courses, won speaking contests, and I still learned many things from this book. It covers everything from controlling nervousness to why presentation skills are important.
Rating: 4
Summary: A Good Tool for any Business or even Students.
Comment: I have checked my University's library and find that there's very few book about this topic. I find Mr. Peoples' book full of experience and advices. I almost want to rate this book (paper back version) 10 marks, but I found the charts as well as the page layouts are sometimes just demonstrate the down sides of good presentations. Hope the next revised edition can look into this and use some more "updated" cliparts as well. the printing and paper used are also need improve.
