Book Reviews of Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007 Complete Makeover Kit

Book Review: One technical book worth the price.
Summary: 5 Stars

I have read, reviewed and edited many books on the topic of software and design. This is one of the most engaging and practical software books I've read on the specific subject of a specific application.

Bajaj and Swinford have used an engaging "makeover" approach to demonstrate the features of PowerPoint. This gives the reader an unusually (and welcome) practical application of the concepts--much more useful than reading a technical manual.

The ideas and lessons in the book are not limited to PowerPoint 2007! The design concepts are sound. (Just because you have a design tool doesn't mean you design well, so learn about both!)

If you use PowerPoint to communicate, influence or entertain, get this book.

Summary of Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007 Complete Makeover Kit

Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007 Complete Makeover Kit

This book is not as much about reading as it is about seeing and doing! That?s why we call it a kit. Full-color pages show you exactly how your slides will look as you follow the makeover steps, and all presentations in various stages of the makeover are on the accompanying CD.

Each of the eight makeovers has been carefully chosen so it?s relevant to anyone who has ever used PowerPoint. And if you just upgraded to PowerPoint 2007, this book gives you a great introduction to the new version of the program, along with ample experience in using all the new features. There?s no better way of getting up to speed with PowerPoint 2007.

 

          ?        Learn the tricks used by the creators of award-winning presentations

          ?        Every makeover includes step-by-step instructions that are illustrated in full color

          ?        Separate chapters dedicated to the PowerPoint 2007 interface and galleries

          ?        Explore everything from choosing appropriate colors to visually representing data
