Sinopsis

"Early Writing" explores the captivating origins and evolution of writing, a cornerstone of human civilization. Delving into ancient history, the book reveals how early societies transitioned from spoken language to lasting written records. It highlights that writing wasn't a singular invention but a gradual development driven by practical needs, such as managing agricultural surpluses.

 
The book journeys through Mesopotamia, examining the genesis of cuneiform from Sumerian pictographs to a more abstract script. It then investigates Egyptian hieroglyphs, a complex system of ideograms and phonograms used in religious and monumental contexts. "Early Writing" further explores the emergence of early alphabets in the Levant and their transformative impact on literacy and communication.

 
Each chapter builds upon the last, tracing the chronological development and providing a comparative perspective. Supported by archaeological evidence and deciphered inscriptions, the book presents a balanced account of these early writing systems. It connects to fields like archaeology and linguistics, providing broader insights into ancient civilizations. The book argues that understanding these systems allows us to appreciate the diverse ways early civilizations organized their societies and transmitted information.

    The ultimate interactive public speaking guide from tech speakers 
    Poornima Vijayashanker and Karen Catlin that prepares and encourages  
    techies to discover their expertise, confidently share it, and successfully level up in their careers. 
     
    Techies around the world can now jump start and grow their speaking careers with the book, Present! A Techie’s Guide to Public Speaking, written by tech leaders, Poornima Vijayashanker and Karen Catlin. The book serves as a resource for technology professionals who want or need to develop the skills to communicate their expertise effectively, whether in a meeting at work or delivering an engaging talk at a conference. 
     
    Poornima, who is the founder of Femgineer and the founding engineer of Mint.com, collaborated with former Adobe vice president and founder of Karen Catlin Consulting, Karen Catlin, to compile and share their lessons, tips, and techniques learned from their own experiences as professional tech speakers. 
     
    “Karen and I wanted to write this book so that our fellow techies would have a comprehensive resource to help them with their own public speaking endeavors. So many folks in the tech industry have amazing ideas and experience, but they often feel stuck on how to present them effectively. Also, our hope is that more women will be inspired by our stories and encouraged to get out there and share their own valuable expertise through public speaking in order to boost representation of women tech speakers,” Poornima said. 
     
    Present! covers public speaking from A to Z. Through stories, examples, and interactive exercises, Poornima and Karen dive into topics including, overcoming stage fright, exploring personal speaking style, creating the right talk for the right audience, polishing presence and delivery, and nailing any type of talk, whether it’s a lightning or long-form talk or being part of a panel. 
     
    Karen said, “Even though Poornima and I are professional speakers, we felt it was important to share our own feelings of nerves and uncertainty, and bumps we’ve had along the way - and sometimes continue to experience. It was important for us to communicate that no one is perfect and it really is okay when talks don’t always go according to plan. Our hope is that by being open, we’ll be able to give others the confidence and the techniques to handle situations when they arise, deliver an amazing presentation, and most importantly, have FUN”!
