Public Speaking Summary

Public Speaking: The Evolving Art by James Lull (San Jose State University)

Employers rank communication skills -- not technical knowledge -- as the most important qualification they look for when hiring and promoting people in their workforce. Coopman/Lull's PUBLIC SPEAKING: THE EVOLVING ART, 5th edition, helps you acquire the diverse skills you need for making effective classroom and workplace presentations -- both in person and online (aka "distance speaking"). The authors' wealth of insight ranges from how to mindfully manage increased speaker anxiety and critically assess the credibility of information sources to expert tips on research, digital literacy and maximizing tools like PowerPoint for in-person and online presentations. Technologically up to date, clearly written and packed with examples from popular culture, sports, politics and quality social media influencers, this book delivers the most engaging and complete public speaking guide available.
