A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture :

'This is not just the most insightful book ever written on public speaking - it's also a brilliant, profound look at how to communicate. If you ever plan to utter a sound, this is a must-read. It gives me hope that words can actually change the world.'
ADAM GRANT, author of Originals

'Nobody in the world better understands the art and science of public speaking than Chris Anderson. He has nurtured, coaxed, and encouraged so many speakers over the years (myself included). He is the absolutely perfect person to have written this book, and it will be a gift to many.'
ELIZABETH GILBERT, author of Eat, Pray, Love and The Signature of All Things

'The TED Talk has reinvented the art of rhetoric for the twenty-first century. We now know that "ideas worth spreading" can indeed be spread far and wide, and with clarity and panache. This book may restore rhetoric to its time-honoured place as one of the essential skills of an educated citizen.'
STEVEN PINKER, Harvard professor, author of How the Mind Works and The Sense of Style

'Is there a single recipe for a great speech? Of course not. But there are some essential ingredients, which the TED team presents here with concision, verve, and wit (which are also some of the ingredients). An inspiring, contemporary guide to the venerable art of oratory.'
SIR KEN ROBINSON, education reformer, author of Creative Schools

'The TED Talk may well be the defining essay genre of our time - what the pamphlet was to the eighteenth century and the newspaper op-ed was to the twentieth. TED Talks is the guidebook to this new language, written by the man who made it into a global force.'
STEVEN JOHNSON, author of How We Got to Now and Emergence

Présentation de l'éditeur :

In Ted Talks Chris Anderson, head of TED, reveals the inside secrets of how to give a first-class presentation. Where books like Talk Like TED and TED Talks Storytelling whetted the appetite, here is the official TED guide to public speaking from the man who put TED talks on the world's stage. 'Nobody in the world better understands the art and science of public speaking than Chris Anderson. He is absolutely the best person to have written this book' Elizabeth Gilbert.

Anderson shares his five key techniques to presentation success: Connection, Narration, Explanation, Persuasion and Revelation (plus the three to avoid). He also answers the most frequently asked questions about giving a talk, from 'What should I wear?' to 'How do I handle my nerves?'.

Ted Talks is also full of presentation tips from such TED notable speakers as Sir Ken Robinson, Bill Gates, Mary Roach, Amy Cuddy, Elizabeth Gilbert, Dan Gilbert, Amanda Palmer, Matt Ridley and many more. This is a lively, fun read with great practical application from the man who knows what goes into a truly memorable speech. In Ted Talks Anderson pulls back the TED curtain for anyone who wants to learn how to prepare an exceptional presentation.
