Helpful Speech Preperation

Fot those who seek helpful tips on improving communication skills and public speech preperation this book is for you. This book is full of great information and will help you to develope your own public speaking techniques.


Beware of binding.

This is a good textbook for anyone who wants an overview on the elements of speaking in public. The content is broad, but not too deep. It puts perspective on oration that I had not considered before. There is a lot of practical thinking woven into the chapters.

However, buyers beware! I bought the ring-bound edition, not understanding that I would have to provide my own 3-ring binder. It was a complete buyer error, but be advised to consider the binding of your textbook. Acquaint yourself with the various types of binding (i.e., spiral, ring, etc.) and identify your preferences.

everything but the code!!!

Everything was included but the code you need to log onto the Lucas website. Therefore you would still have to purchase the code for $15.00, so really it is not any less expensive than any other seller....






Nice book

Easy, step at a time intro to public speaking. Useful on its own, but more appropriate in a classroom environment than as a self-study book.
