You can improve your speaking ability by observing a dozen or so 
heuristic rules. Professor Winston presents a collection of rules along 
with some observations about their application in lectures, job talks, 
and conferences.

Professor Winston joined the faculty of the EE/CS Department in 1970 and 
is Ford Professor of Artificial Intelligence and Computer Science at MIT 
Laboratory (CSAIL). He served as Director of the MIT Artificial 
Intelligence Laboratory, a predecessor of CSAIL, from 1972 to 1997. His 
Genesis Group studies how vision, language, and motor faculties account 
for intelligence, integrating work from several allied fields, including 
not only Artificial Intelligence, but also Computer Science, Systems 
Neuroscience, Cognitive Science, and Linguistics.

Sponsored by the Office of the Vice President for Research and the MIT 
Postdoctoral Association for the MIT community.
