Customer Reviews Average Rating: 
Rating: - Love the new approach
Great philosophy! I hate when people read me things off of power points, it makes it seem like such a waste of time. This book fixes that in plain language and step by step directions. Sometimes I think they belabor some points, but it may be necessary to ride our minds of old ways of thinking.
Rating: - Death by PowerPoint Syndrome
When American Idol hit the airwaves, the popular TV show gave false hope to bad singers.When the popular PowerPoint presentation software was introduced by Microsoft, it gave false hope to inexperienced presenters--and turned uninspiring meetings into really boring meetings. It was death by PowerPoint.
But there's hope and there's help.Quick! Order this book and delegate all future PowerPoint presentations to ONLY those who have read and mastered the innovative approach in this remarkable ... Read More
Rating:  - Just what I needed to get energized again!
Beyond Bullet Points came at just the right time for me. I am working on several projects at the moment and was really struggling with getting over the hump as far as engaging the audience.

Rating:  - 200 pages of fluff
This book is awful. It promises to show you how to create powerpoint presentations that motivate and inspire. But instead, it gives you a couple of pages teaching you the author's format (basically, a Hollywood script, in 3 Acts) then spends the rest of the book telling you how to create hidden slides, how to insert clip-art, and tons of "filler" pages of "top 10 things to remember" that are, frankly, common sense.
The Hollywood format, does look somewhat useful for creating a dialog with your audience ... Read More
Rating: - Best yet from Cliff Atkinson... I'm now a complete fan!
I recommend "Beyond Bullet Points" in my class all the time. I continually have people coming up to me and asking where my slides came from or how I go about creating them. While I cannot say that I stick to the BBP process strictly, I do use its concepts heavily in my slides. This is why I tell these people ot start with BBP.
Well, I just picked up my copy of the 2007 version of BBP last week and wow! This is what it should have always been. It was good before, but the difference between the original BBP ... Read More
