In the breezily written but information-solid The Power of Speech: Effective Techniques for Dynamic Communication, speech teacher and performer Marie Stuttard offers a series of easily digested tips and drills that can help even the most reluctant oral communicator become a dynamic conversationalist. With 74 independent sections designed to be read in any order, The Power of Speech is packed with practical methods for avoiding common traps as well as advice on pacing, enthusiasm, preparation, and delivery. Stuttard's companion book, The Power of Public Speaking, is geared more toward formal presentations before an audience.
