Book excerpt: Shortly after the publication of my book SuperCompetent: The Six Keys to Perform at Your Productive Best, when I was the incoming 2011-2012 President of the National Speakers Association, Lorri Freifeld from Training magazine asked me to write a monthly column on speaking. I was allowed great latitude on the subject matter, as long as it pertained to professional speaking at some level and the articles were meaty and pithy. Since that time, I've ranged far and wide across the subject, covering everything from how to dress to how to break the ice, deal with hecklers, retain the audience's attention, and use stories to enhance individual talks. I've discussed the differences between keynotes and workshops, cautioned readers about presentation pitfalls, and explained how to either cut or stretch a speech to meet your customer’s needs. I try to provide straightforward pointers in a lively, concise, and educational style. I've collected those topics here in one place for the first time. I believe you'll find the following eBook, which includes 27 of my collected columns, to be insightful and motivational, whether you're just starting out or you've stepped onto the stage a thousand times. I re-emphasize several central themes throughout, which I'm sure you'll recognize as integral to the speaking profession. You’ll also find plenty of brand new nuggets of wisdom to cherish. I've included plenty of what of you might consider common sense; but at our breakneck modern pace, it's sometimes hard to keep everything in mind at once, so I think these things are worth repeating. These pointers and reminders can serve as checklists as you research and develop your own speaking masterpieces. Even better, these ideas might spark a few of your own as you move forward in the challenging yet uniquely exciting world of professional speaking. I've been in the business for 20 years now, and it never gets old! In this field, there's always something new to learn. So in this spirit, I present to you my first collection of "SuperCompetent Speaking" columns.

Whether you are a student required to speak in the speech class, a manager requested to do a sales presentation or a friend asked to give a eulogy in a funeral, there are many benefits of public speaking as it's a great way to gain exposure, self-confidence, and success. Every great speaker started out as a poor one, what made them a success was their willingness to take a chance, try again, and view every opportunity as a learning experience to becoming a confident and competent speaker. This book is about the amazing 10 speeches of the author, a competent communicator in the renowned public speaking club, Toastmasters International. The speeches are wonderfully arranged and are in themselves thought provoking that will surely incite readers to rethink about their own realities.

It is by this author's deep sincerity and aspiration that by mere sharing of his messages, as presented in his speaking engagements and now in this book, he will initiate conceptual ripples which will positively impact our world and make it better place to live in. Hopeful that the messages will go a long long way and time. Yet more to it, this book is basically a speech manual for public speakers and aspirants as well. This book will guide you through the world of public speaking while enjoying the amusing stories in the ten awesome speeches of a Competent Speaker. Toastmasters International members and TED Talks subscribers alike will definitely love this!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes how an automated patient medical record could be built that could evolve into a universal patient record. Such a universal patient record would change medical care from a focus on short-term care to one oriented to long-term, preventive-care. It would remove patient care from being the province of the single physician to that of the responsibility of many different healthcare providers, possibly located anywhere in the world.

Download or read book Vagueness in Context written by Stewart Shapiro and published by Oxford University Press on Demand. This book was released on 2006-01-05 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stewart Shapiro's aim in Vagueness in Context is to develop both a philosophical and a formal, model-theoretic account of the meaning, function, and logic of vague terms in an idealized version of a natural language like English. It is a commonplace that the extensions of vague terms vary with such contextual factors as the comparison class and paradigm cases. A person can be tall with respect to male accountants and not tall (even short) with respect to professionalbasketball players. The main feature of Shapiro's account is that the extensions (and anti-extensions) of vague terms also vary in the course of a conversation, even after the external contextual features, such as the comparison class, are fixed. A central thesis is that in some cases, a competent speaker ofthe language can go either way in the borderline area of a vague predicate without sinning against the meaning of the words and the non-linguistic facts. Shapiro calls this open texture, borrowing the term from Friedrich Waismann.The formal model theory has a similar structure to the supervaluationist approach, employing the notion of a sharpening of a base interpretation. In line with the philosophical account, however, the notion of super-truth does not play a central role in the development of validity. The ultimate goal of the technical aspects of the work is to delimit a plausible notion of logical consequence, and to explore what happens with the sorites paradox.Later chapters deal with what passes for higher-order vagueness - vagueness in the notions of 'determinacy' and 'borderline' - and with vague singular terms, or objects. In each case, the philosophical picture is developed by extending and modifying the original account. This is followed with modifications to the model theory and the central meta-theorems.As Shapiro sees it, vagueness is a linguistic phenomenon, due to the kinds of languages that humans speak. But vagueness is also due to the world we find ourselves in, as we try to communicate features of it to each other. Vagueness is also due to the kinds of beings we are. There is no need to blame the phenomenon on any one of those aspects.

Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Philosophy of Colour written by Derek H. Brown and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-09-27 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From David Hume’s famous puzzle about "the missing shade of blue," to current research into the science of colour, the topic of colour is an incredibly fertile region of study and debate, cutting across philosophy of mind, epistemology, metaphysics, and aesthetics, as well as psychology. Debates about the nature of our experience of colour and the nature of colour itself are central to contemporary discussion and argument in philosophy of mind and psychology, and philosophy of perception. This outstanding Handbook contains 29 specially commissioned contributions by leading philosophers and examines the most important aspects of philosophy of colour. It is organized into six parts: The Importance of Colour to Philosophy The Science and Spaces of Colour Colour Phenomena Colour Ontology Colour Experience and Epistemology Language, Categories, and Thought. The Routledge Handbook of Philosophy of Colour is essential reading for students and researchers in philosophy of mind and psychology, epistemology, metaphysics, and aesthetics, as well as for those interested in conceptual issues in the psychology of colour.

Download or read book Normativity, Meaning and Philosophy: Essays on Wittgenstein written by Hans-Johann Glock and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2024-04-09 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a collection of essays on Wittgenstein and Wittgensteinian themes that appeared between 1996 and 2019. It is divided into three parts, with a common trajectory laid out in a substantial introduction. The first part links meaning, necessity and normativity. It defends and modifies Wittgenstein’s claim that the idea of a ‘grammatical rule’ holds the key to understanding linguistic meaning and its connection to necessary truth. The second part elucidates the connections between meaning, concepts and thought in Wittgenstein and beyond. It shows how he laid the grounds for a sound understanding of four contested issues—radical interpretation, concepts, nonsense and animal minds. The third part provides a qualified defence of Wittgenstein’s controversial idea that philosophical problems are conceptual, and thereby rooted in confusions concerning the meanings of and semantic relations between linguistic expressions. Against irrationalist interpretations, it demonstrates that Wittgenstein’s method is argumentative rather than therapeutic. The collection as a whole makes a powerful case for an analytic perspective on Wittgenstein. The essays bring out the abiding relevance of Wittgenstein’s reflections to contemporary debates on central topics such as the role of normativity, the foundations of linguistic meaning, the nature of concepts, the possibility of animal thought, and the proper methods of philosophy.
