Really clear, great tips, excellent layout. 
I've already started using some of the steps, without needing my notes or the book as reference, which is a great sign that it's written well enough to stick!

Thanks so much to Headline for this ALC! I can't think of a single person who can't benefit from reading this book. It's a lot more than a guide to good explanations, but a guide to overall improved communication whether in the workplace, at school or even in personal relationships. 
I'm a real stickler for good comms - the amount of misunderstanding that arises from people being poor at communicating is astounding! Whether it's because they give missing or excessive information, because they have different reference points when listening or because so many people listen to respond to what they think a person is going to say rather than listening to what is actually being said... this book can help anyone convey their messages better.
The Art of Explanation should be mandatory reading for all people!
