I stumbled across Garr Reynold's blog Presentation Zen about a year ago and then bought his book Presentation Zen when it came out at the beginning of 2008. It's a good read and gave me lots of ideas for improving my own style in front of the classroom.
In a recent post he gave his recommendations for ten books that would help improve presentation skills. Not one is a how-to book on using Powerpoint or Keynote. They are all books on design or speaking. Since his book has been such a big influence on me, I will be checking out several of these titles.
So many books I want to read. So many projects to grade. Alas, no one pays me to read books.
