{"product_id":"presenting-science","title":"Presenting Science","description":"'Giving a talk' is one of the most important ways in which we communicate our research. The 'talk' covers everything from a ten-minute briefing on progress to a handful of colleagues, to a keynote address to a major international conference with more than a thousand delegates. Whatever the occasion, the aim is the same - to get the message across clearly and effectively. At the same time, presentational skills are becoming more important in all walks of life - and presenting science has particular issues. Our aim is to equip the reader with the basic skills needed to make a good presentation, and our approach is pragmatic, not dogmatic. We emphasise four points:\n\n- The goal is to communicate the science to the audience.\n- The speaker is responsible for everything that appears, and does not appear, on each slide.\n- The structure and appearance of the presentation are part of the communication process.\n- There is no standard way of doing things.\n\nGiving a good talk on science is a skill that can be learnt like any other: in this book we take the reader through the process of presenting science to a wide variety of audiences.","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54228883898712,"sku":"9780199549092","price":49.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780199549092.jpg?v=1778527825","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/presenting-science","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
