supplementary

I'm not one who is big on public speaking, but this book gave me the confidence I needed to succeed in my speech class, this past semester. I thought it was an easy read, and it gets you to be conscious of this you say or do, or may say or do while delivering a speech

Great seller

The text came in near new condition. It's hard to believe it was used... only the corners were a little tiny bit bend and everything else was new. Great quality and seller!

Exactly what was needed, in good condition

This book came exactly like it was supposed to. It was on time and I am very pleased. Thank you

Public speaking made easy.

For most people, public speaking isn't something that comes easy. In fact, most people dislike giving speeches (putting it mildly). I was one of those people that didn't come easy for. But, after careful studying of the tips/techniques to give a good speech, ways to analyze your audience, and many other concepts, I was able to give successful speeches, with the confidence that being well prepared provides. The topics in this book are easy to understand and remember, explain nearly all of the issues important for a successful speech, and are arranged in a manner that allows the student to get more sophisticated as he/she progresses through the course without presenting an information overload in the beginning and without holding all of the useful information until the end. I think that this book is a valuable text not only for the student but for anyone that would like to improve their public speaking skills.
