This review is from: Presenting in English: How to Give Successful Presentations (Updated Edition) (Paperback)

I love this book. I have used it in many English training programs and it is very rich in content and helpful. That said, it made me sad to see this book re-edited, and then find that the pictures were slightly changed (to a less attractive style, in my opinion) the lay-out re-done, but no updating of the text itself. There is an example that talks about the the future of the industry in Europe depending on the yen, and an example with 2005 as a future reference. The text was first published in 1996 - so in a way it's amazing how well it has vintaged. But to have 2011 as the new copyright date, without changes being made to update examples and then no reference to when the text was actually written is disappointing.
