Abstract

The ninth edition of this top-selling, comprehensive introductory public speaking text by this highly-regarded author team highlights and develops the theme of Finding Your Voice as a speaker and as a person, supported by new pedagogy, numerous sample student speeches, and significantly streamlined, reorganized content throughout.

 

 

The “Finding Your Voice” sub-title focuses a theme that has been implicit in the book from its first edition:  Helping students develop as speakers and as people, as they gain presentation skills and confidence, discover causes that interest and engage them, and give them a sense of purpose or mission.  This theme reinforces the book’s primary goal of helping students to become better communicators in their classrooms, workplaces and communities.
