This doesn't go into much technical detail about creating slides, but it gives you enough to get started without feeling overwhelmed. The best parts are all the examples of slides in the book. A great source of inspiration.

Great book for not only Powerpoint/Keynote presentations, but so many of these ideas can be applied to "presentation" in general (as in, "presentation is everything"). If Steve Jobs would have written a book on presentations, it would have been this one.

The best book about presentations. It's also structured like a good presentation, so the author gives the impression he knows what he's talking about. And he is right. The road to an efficient presentation is minimalism.
* Computer as a bike or car? Analogy. Who is in control?
* Pen and paper boost creativity and overview
* Solitude for creativity and discoveries. Community for improvement.
* Major questions:
* How much time
* Location and time
* Audience expectations and their background
* Fundamental purpose of the talk
* What's the story
* What is my absolute central point, if everyone remembers only one thing
* Dakara nani = So what? Ask yourself tough questions in the planning phase
* Clarity = sell the main point in 30-45 seconds. elevator pitch.
* A whole lot about the story and personal style and voice
* To amplify simplify
* Quotes are ok for some presentations.
* Empty space is also ok

Not the most current but the underlying fundamentals are strong and still apply. Present better and for god’s sake don’t read your slides at me.

Very nice methodology of prezentation without redundant things. Only that matters is important.

Being at Microsoft, I've seen my fair share of crappy presentations. Anyone giving a presentation should be forced to read this book.

Bardzo fajnie się czyta i można się mocno zainspirować. W sumie nawet trzeba! Warto książkę przeczytać zanim siądzie się do tworzenia prezentacji i warto do niej wracać, kiedy przygotowuje się kolejne wystąpienia.
