It's a decent book, but it just SCREAMS mid-90s late-night infomercial ("Learn the secrets they don't want you to know!).
Let's face it - these aren't secrets. No one is trying to keep any of this from you. If you don't know it, it's because you didn't bother asking. A great deal of it is even common sense (such as being prepared - which the discussion of takes up a huge chunk of this book).
My version was the audiobook version. I don't know (or care) who the reader is (though I do hope it wasn't the author!). The reader could have mastered every single "secret" in this book and still would fail as a public speaker. You know that saying that someone "has a face for radio"? Well, this reader had a "voice for silent films." It just wasn't show more pleasant to listen to at all. show less
