I used this for my communications class to learn how to better organize and deliver my speeches. This book is written incredibly well. It uses several examples from famous speeches. It was nice to read a textbook that was applicable to the current time period.
This greatly deserves more that five stars. the price is amazingly cheap and the quality of the book i ordered came better than what i expected. It did take a while before it arrived, however it did make it before the due date. so yes. This book really is helping me a lot in how to construct a speech, giving me more info about forming an outline which is a huge help.
I understand that this product was used, but I was very impressed with the quality and how fast it shipped. There were some paragraphs that were highlighted, but nothing really distracted from the contents of the book. The book was very gently used, and the condition was great for a paperback book. I will gladly purchase books from this seller again if I can find any books I will need. :)
Bought this textbook for my Elements of Public Speaking Class and I found it very easy to read and super-informative. It included great analogies and examples, too!
This is a great text that goes in depth to all aspects of speeches. From writing to delivering the perfect speech, this text does it.
This book is laid out in a way for easy reading and outlining each chapter. Assists in writing business speeches.
Very well written and done
Got this book for an intro to public speaking class. I recommend this book to anyone wanting to know the foundation of public speaking.
