5.0 out of 5 stars Essential book, Mar 26 2008
By Book Worm "Book Worm" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: A Pocket Guide to Public Speaking (Spiral-bound)
The word is that people fear public speaking more than they fear dying, so this book is for any of those people. These tips help get anyone ready to not only get over their fear of speaking, but to command audiences. There are excellent tips for giving a presentation and using PowerPoint. Being able to master these two can give anyone a one-two knock out punch for public speaking.
