Now in its second edition, this volume offers brand new classroom-tested chapter assignments, updated examples, and new content on speaking to international and remote audiences. An instructor?s manual and test bank are available for download on the book?s companion website, offering everything from guidance in constructing a syllabus, to lecture suggestions, to classroom activities. This student-engagement focused and flexible text offers students the opportunity to increase their speaking abilities across a variety of more specific and complex contexts.

"This textbook is a strong tool for those seeking to enhance their abilities as a public speaker. The authors present valuable material and relatable examples that students will understand. The use of "classical concepts" is a triumph as we attempt to introduce students to ancient rhetorical theory. This is the very best textbook that I have utilized in my advanced public speaking classroom."?- Douglas Marshall, Southern University at New Orleans?
