Beschrijving boek
Critical steps to succeed and critical errors to avoid.
The Craft of Scientific Presentations provides scores of examples from contemporary and historical scientific presentations to show clearly what makes an oral presentation effective. It considers presentations made to communicate information and presentations made to persuade an audience to adopt some course of action [such as funding a proposal], and it considers these from four perspectives: content, structure, visual aids, and delivery.
What distinguishes this book on scientific presentations is that it anchors all its advice in the experiences of scientists and engineers, including such successful presenters as Richard Feynman, Heinrich Hertz, Rita Levi-Montalcini, and Linus Pauling as well as currently active laboratory directors, scientists, and engineers.
In addition to examining successful presentations, Alley also discusses ten critical errors that cause many scientific presentations to flounder. In examining both critical steps to succeed and critical errors to avoid, this book provides you with the insights and tools to let you improve your own presentations until they become outstanding.
