This book provides advice on public speaking with a positive, but realistic approach. As an individual who recently started a job in which I need to provide training/do public speaking on a regular basis, this was a great resource. I will be employing the strategies learned from this book for my job. There were many lessons to be learned that are presented with real-life examples and quotations from famous/eminent speakers. The only point that I felt detracted from the flow of the book is that there were sometimes too many examples and quotes.

Public speaking somehow instills fear in almost everyone and the author of this book did a great job of providing advice that was easy to follow. The positive attitude of the author shone throughout this book in the writing style.
