Summary:

In today's world, where everything seems to be digital and impersonal, being able to talk directly to people is still necessary. Yet, most of us are nervous, even afraid, of standing there on the stage. This text focuses on the kind of presentations students and academic staff need to do as part of their studies and work, and is aimed at students with English as second language. However, the ideas presented are just as valid for all other forms of presenting. You don't have to be a student or an academic to use this book; rather the opposite.
