This book has its good points and confirms what we already know about public speaking. As a remInder to focus it is good. But it is written in a way that really puts me off the author as a selfy, pompous guy who needs to get into name dropping and bragging to prove his qualifications. After reading the book, I find myself worrying that now every public talk will sound like a TED talk, whereby we devalue the novelty add value of TED talks. The more TED talks we have, the less value single talks have.
