  • Broschiertes Buch

This unique book is conceptually organized around the engineering design process. It demonstrates how to apply this process to formal oral technical presentations. Providing clear and concise instruction supported by illustrative examples, the text explains how to avoid logical fallacies (both formal and informal), use physical reasoning to catch mistakes in claims, master the essentials of presentation style, conquer the elements of mathematical exposition, and forge a connection with the audience. Each chapter ends with a convenient checklist, bulleted summary, and set of exercises.
