Summary

This new, brief, economical text stresses the importance of public communication in contemporary life. Through examples and a companion collection of sample speeches, the book and media program empower students to be confident and effective communicators when it matters. By integrating vital themes of our time, Public Communication invites students to make the connection between their basic public speaking class and such meaningful topics as personal and professional ethics, religious identity, diversity, health and medicine, education, and the environment--and to actively participate in civic life.
