A two time competitor in the Toastmasters World Champion of Public Speaking, Rich Hopkins has complied and edited a serious guide to using humor in public speaking. It is an excellent resource that takes a unique approach to studing eleven top oral communicators and how they connect to their audiences by using various techniques such as using the "rule of three" and "exaggerating the familiar". The structure of the book opens with an author's preface, their speech and then an analysis. This format gives the reader an opportunity to study each speech and what each speaker did well and how they used humor to enhance their presentations. This guide is full of step by step examples to study and use for any public speakers toolkit. A MUST-READ for any Toastmaster.
