This is a book for anyone who has to speak in public, whether it is epilogues, meetings, and presentations to committees or preaching. Richard Bewes carefully divides up the subject into easily digestible sections in a way that is memorable, and sprinkles anecdotes about his own experiences to illustrate many points.
If speaking in public is normally something that concerns you, or fills you with fear, then this book will leave a warm rosy glow on your cheeks and the irresistible urge to try some of the ideas out as soon as you can.
