A Book to Flip Over February 28, 2007
11 out of 11 found this review helpful
In a world run-amuck with powerpoint presentations, this book is another reminder that sometimes the best training aids are the most simple, not electrical, and therefore more reliable.
Brandt gives you the strategy for using flips, how to design them, and how to integrate them in your presentation. He even tells you how they should be stored and carried.
I have found his information so helpful, it is now a part of our train-the-trainer program.
After all, what are you going to do if the electricity or the outlet blows?
Highly recommended.

The book covers all aspect of Flip Charts, starting from what sort of paper to use, type of markers, drawing stick figures and smileys with character and ending with how to store your charts and how to construct a flip-chart stand. It's a good book if you've just decided to 'do something' with flip-charts. However, it's as useful or not as much of a reference for the experienced user.
For the more experienced user who's looking for more advanced techniques and ideas, I suggest 'The Big Book of Flip Charts' by Robert W. Lucas. If you need help in the 'art' department (in other words. If you can't draw a flower to save your life), consider 'A Picture's Worth 1,000 Words : A Workbook for Visual Communications' by Jean Westcott and Jennifer Hammond.
 Practical, useful--an indispensable reference March 29, 2000

This is a "How-To" book. The tools and techniques Brandt shares here are those that separate the pros from the rest of the pack when it comes to flip chart work. 85 pages are jam-packed with templates, experiences, hints--I did not find a wasted word anywhere in this book. Some of the tidbits you will find: * Reasons the flipchart is an appropriate, or inappropriate, AV choice for your presentation * Both the function and form of flip charts, and how to be sure they complement each other * The Flip Chart Presenter's Survival Kit (this alone was worth the price of the book for me, and has saved my presentation several times) * Techniques on design, printing, "hiding and revealing" content. . . * Effective methods of production, storage, and transportation * Dozens of illustrations, pictures--even instructions for making your own flip chart stand. This is one of my most prized reference tools. Rarely do I create a new presentation without referring to it at least once.

Brandt's book has been around for over a decade, but provides creative and insightful information on the topic of flip charts.

This is the one book that I would recommend for any trainer. Mr. Brandt tells you how to create flipcharts, including use of color, graphics, lettering, and the use of space. It is easy to read and follow. Also included are several diagrams for easy to draw graphics and lettering.This is one book I would recommend for every trainrs toolbox!
