Zusammenfassung: | With over 500 million users worldwide, Microsoft's PowerPoint software has become the ubiquitous tool for nearly all forms of public presentation--in schools, government agencies, the military, and, of course, offices everywhere. In this revealing and powerfully argued book, author Franck Frommer shows us that PowerPoint's celebrated ease and efficiency actually mask a profoundly disturbing but little-understood transformation in human communication. Using fascinating examples (including the most famous PowerPoint presentation of all: Colin Powell's indictment of Iraq before the United Nations). |

English How PowerPoint makes you stupid : the faulty causality, sloppy logic, decontextualized data, and seductive showmanship that have taken over our thinking / Franck Frommer ; translated from the French by George Holoch.
