      为什么要荐的理由很简单，当大家作毕业论文答辩的时候，平时学科组开会的时候，写学术论文的时候，您所急需的不正是这样的一本书么？
      为什么是这本书的理由也很简单：大家都很忙，都没有很多的时间仔细读个5-600页的长篇论著，所以就本人观点这本仅116页的小书必定是一个不错的选择。基本要件掌握好，其他可在实践中摸索前行。
      全书语言简单流畅，以选择英文是种无奈的选择开头，一下深入读者内心；文中适度穿插了名人名言（不少来自莎翁剧作），给著作带来了不少生气。通篇除引言部分，分为两部分：第一部分教你如何写论文，第二部分教你如何作演示。
      全书从写作模式的确定到文档编辑和摘要的撰写；从幻灯片的准备到声音和肢体语言的运用；精当的向您展示了在本书设定框架下所要达成的阅读目的。
您还等什么呢？赶快来一睹为快吧。
preface摘录及简略翻译：
This book is written specifically for scientists who have received formal education in speaking and writing English but for whom English is not a native nor an easily comfortable language. Those who have already published research in English, and those who have successfully presented at international conferences may well find the material in the book overly simplistic. The author apologizes to any such readers.
本书特别针对已经受过正式的读写英语教育并且英语不是母语的科学工作者。如果您已经发表过英语论文，或者曾成功的在国际会议中作过演讲，那么可能您会觉得本书过于简单。作者谨对这类读者表示歉意。
