Reviews

[Saartje · Rating 3 out of 5]

The author makes some interesting points and gives quite a few useful tips, but the book appears to be a little repetitive from time to time. There are also some rather strange analogies that were probably meant to relate presenting to things in the real world, but instead of engaging me, they made me cringe. However, the visuals used throughout this guide were nice!
