 Customer Reviews 
6 stars!
Rating: 5
I will give 6 stars if I could. I am frustrated many a time reading books which are scored 5 stars in customer review. As compared to ordinary "5 stars" books, this one deserve 6 stars! Anyone who is serious about presentation should get one. I brought several copies as gift to my best friends as well.
Brilliant book for anyone who presents
Rating: 5
This is an excellent book. I know PowerPoint better than most of my colleagues, and I present regularly (and i feel reasonably successfully) to senior and executive audiences. If you're in a similar situation, then I beleive this could be the best money you can spend. It has inspired and positively challenged me in numerous ways. If you are a regular presenter, it will challenge your thinking, your style and your approach, and encourage you to become better. If you're a newbie, then read this and don't listen to anyone else!
This is not a book to teach you about PowerPoint, so if you want that go buy 'PowerPoint for Dummies' - but dont expect to become a better presenter because of it. If you have a basic knowledge of PowerPoint, you probably know more than enough to take advantage of this material. This book will teach you how to present using PowerPoint to creatively support your ideas as opposed to using it as a crutch.
The man knows what he is talking about

First off I have to admit I am a bit bias, I have read Garr blog for years now. Nonetheless, this book embodies what a great powerpoint is and isn't.
Be careful what you wish for, after reading this book you may have an epiphany that 95% of the power points presented are truly awful.
A lot of the content and concepts of the book are covered in his blog, but this is a better easy to use offline reference.
