5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive and Valuable PowerPoint Resource, February 8, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Sams Teach Yourself Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003 in 24 Hours (Paperback)

I was a fairly experienced PowerPoint user, but Bunzel's book illustrated many of the unrealized possibilities of presentation software. Especially helpful to more advanced users is the in-depth coverage of methods for incorporating movies and sound from various sources. I've been inspired now to transform my talks from blase data dumps into engaging interactive experiences. Overall, excellent coverage of topics for beginning PowerPoint users and those who think they know enough (if not all). A valuable resource which occupies a prominent place in my software library.
