A text on critical areas of the communication process, helping students become more effective thinkers, language users, and ethical purveyors of informative and persuasive messages. Takes a theory and practice approach, with chapters on public speaking and communication, language habits, researching, This crisply-written and time-tested introduction to public speaking text provides students with both the theoretical framework, based in the social sciences, for becoming more effective communicators and practical advice on how to accomplish this goal.
