An excellent resource for pressentation ideas
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This is an outstanding resource for anyone who has to produce charts. If you want your graphics to look original and be absolutely clear as to their meaning, this is the book for you. The author illustrates his points and arguments with many real-world examples from recent times and the past. The great advantage of this book is that it was written before Powerpoint. The trouble with PC tools such as this is that although they make chart creation very easy, they actually take away a lot of the freedom you have when your only tools are pen and paper. It's very easy with Powerpoint to become quickly stuck in a rut of producing bar charts, pies and organisation charts. By presenting so many ideas about what charts could like, this book tickles your imagination and creativity to work out how you could use Powerpoint etc to produce a much wider variety of diagram. I keep this on my desk at all times, wedged in between my Concise Oxford Dictionary and Pears Cyclopaedia. For me, it's that essential a reference book.
