Required book for my Public Speaking class. Interesting read.

[Luke A. Bunker · Rating 4 out of 5]

OK, so let's start out with the obvious. This is a textbook. However, unlike so many textbooks, this book was well-organized, had good information with plenty of examples, and has actually helped me put more thought into my speeches.

To conclude, it HELPED! Definitely do the reading - if your case is similar to mine, it will enhance your public speaking skills and confidence.

Correct book for class, easy to navigate, comes with study helps (flash cards, etc.).
