This book by Sergey Shipunov is both a modern encyclopedia and a practical instruction for public performances and presentations. This is one of the best books in this field I have read in the last 10 years.

Comparing it with other books, one can note the sharpness, clarity, and accessibility for understanding the material presented in the book. I was lucky to attend the training session on how to give a presentation. It is one of the best trainings held in Moscow. By having this book and taking some training, a person can quickly and accurately learn the techniques and presentation skills, as well as get an insight into the processes of business communication and public speaking.

Each section of the book has excellent illustrations of a scheme. I, as a business coach, thought this book was very interesting. I found a lot of new tips, and what is more important, I also found the advice and recommendations in the book to be very practical. This is a real textbook on the subject.

I am confident that this manual will be extremely interesting to a wide audience of people who often speak in public, give presentations, and/or teach training courses on public speaking.

Many thanks to the author for a great book, and I hope all of the readers enjoy this book.

Read, learn, practice, and enjoy giving presentations. Make your audience happy.
