Review: "An especially important goal of this text is to make presenters aware that giving an effective presentation requires mastery of a broad range of skills. Students will learn how to chose an appropriate topic, create effective visuals, and design a speech opening. The text also provides an analysis of speeches; examination of major speech types, accompanying organizational strategies, and related language use; discussion of speech introductions and the importance of speech overviews or outlines; tips for improving nonverbal behavior; suggestions for speaker-listener interaction; analysis of ways to qualify claims and strategies for improving them; and opportunities for evaluating one's work and the work of others."--BOOK JACKET.
