A new edition of the college text introducing public speaking from an audience-centered approach to the speechmaking process. The authors present a circular model to that process which includes selecting a topic, determining purpose, developing the central idea, gathering support materials, organizing the speech, rehearsing, and delivering. Each of these concepts is continually centered by considerations of the audience which in this new edition features discussions on diversity and ethics. Contains appendices of speeches for analysis, visual aid guides, and suggested speech topics. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
