This is not just another how-to guide. This is a jam-packed journal that reads like a voyager's logbook. Jan D'Arcy writes from deep experience, and because she has lived the experience, she can paint dozens of colorful sketches. I confess I was skeptical about buying yet another book about presentations, selling yourself and the other necessities of telling mixed groups about hi technology. But I am facing a real turning point, and I believe Jan's book will save me from many errors. For example, as an inventor of a new computer game, I have to re-invent peoples' notions about what is good and bad about electronic games. My audience, as Jan points out, is a tough one--the baby-boomer generation on one side of the aisle and hi-tech, high-rolling Internet executives on the other. This review comes when I am only partway into the process but, guess what: This is a guide book you can take with you as you chart new territories. It's a valuable roadmap with straightforeward, brief, clear and colorful text all along the way.
