Critics Review
This book is giddy with the joy of communication. A love letter to language (‘Use a little alliteration’, page 159) – Stuart Heritage
Russell Davies
Russell Davies has squandered what talents he has learning more about PowerPoint, creativity and communication than is really healthy. He’s used PowerPoint inside 10 Downing Street, written about it for Wired, and put it in a MoMA exhibition. He’s PowerPointed for organisations like Nike, Microsoft and Apple.
