In My Top 10 Books
“This book is a must have for anyone wanting to communicate to an audience. The book is written in a logical sequence and like it's central premise uses images freely to make each major point in the book ... well visual. Anyone that has ever been to a good presentation innately can see why they enjoyed the presentation. And the corollary is equally true, just spoken words and bullet points do not stick and leave the audience bored and tuned out. The most lasting lesson in the book is that "creativity comes from constraints" - less is more. I would also recommend that you get the paperback version as opposed to the Kindle version as the latter does not show all the images and they are by definition black and white. If you are a presenter on a regular basis make sure your briefcase contains this presentation "bible".”

The book is full of useful advice, and also full of many visual examples.
This should be required reading for anybody who uses Powerpoint or Keynote.

could be better
“I have bougth that book with a lot of expectations and at the end was a bit disapointed. I had started studying the subject with a first cheaper purchase on the website powerpoint-presentation-[...]. That revealed to be actually enough. The book Presentation Zen did not bring me much more. I think that the book could have been shorter, and some ideas were sometimes too obvious.. (like keep the light on) ”
