A must have on everyone's reference shelf. If you even think you might have to do any public speaking, you must read this one. Better yet, take the Dale Course. Pricy but well worth the money. It pays big dividends. ( )

Most books on public speaking and presentation deal with the speaking aspects, I took the Carnegie courses and was expecting more of the same but was pleasantly surprised. I think anyone who uses this book will be too. The Carnegie approach goes beyond the usual presentation advice and addresses personality and human approach. One not only learns to deal with groups, but to improve one’s skills when dealing with another person one-on-one. ( )

It delivers on the title. Worth reading or reviewing. I first read it as part of a Dale Carnegie class, which referenced the book frequently. ( )

Excellent book. This book has been in print for so many years and has tremendous credibility. Reads like a textbook. A person in business who communicates must read this book. I highly recommend. ( )

Public Speaking and Influencing Men in Business

Book description

Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0766169731, Paperback)

1913. A movement for adult education is sweeping over the nation today; and the most spectacular force in that movement in Dale Carnegie, a man who has listened to and criticized more talks by adults than has any other man in captivity. According to a recent cartoon by "Believe-It-Or-Not" Ripley, he has criticized 150,000 speeches. If that grand total does not impress you, remember that it means one talk for almost every day that has passed since Columbus discovered America. Or, to put it in other words, if all the men who have spoken before him had used only three minutes and had appeared before him in succession, it would have taken a solid year, listening day and night, to hear them all.
