Book excerpt: Are you looking to take your public speaking to the next level?Whether you are a brand-new speaker or an established professional, you've come to the right place."Present" Yourself in Public Speaking fills a huge gap in public-speaking education. While most public-speaking books and courses rehash the mechanics of public speaking, this book provides a rare insight into the psychology of public speaking. For example, you may have heard that public speaking is people's number one fear in life. It turns out, most people are usually not afraid of public speaking at all; it's public judgment that they most fear. This fear and ones like it impact people's ability to connect authentically and authoritatively with their audience. The other major player affecting authentic connection with audiences is the "inner critic." Every human being has an inner critic, and everyone who speaks publicly has had to deal with their inner critic on some level. Now factor in the idea that every person in the audience has an inner critic also, and you begin to see the challenge! Using the techniques laid out in this book, Mary Cheyne was able to transform from a shy, self-conscious computer programmer into a world-class public speaker, culminating in a 2nd place win in the 2009 World Championship of Public Speaking, out of 25,000 contestants from 14 countries. She has now been a professional speaker and trainer for the better part of a decade.The insights, tools, and advice in this book, derived from Mary Cheyne's years of real-world experience teaching and presenting to thousands of people, will permanently transform your experience of public speaking. "Present" Yourself in Public Speaking addresses:* Detailed insights about how and why you, as a human, have an inner critic and self-doubt.* Practical tools and processes, so you can snap yourself out of it when your inner critic takes over.* A simple process to eliminate self-doubt as well as concrete ways to build self-trust.* Common myths about public speaking and how they hold you back.* How to be real and relatable to your audience.* An easy-to-follow formula for authentic stage presence.* A long-term inside-out path to public-speaking mastery, so you can continue to improve, no matter what level you are currently at.Are you ready to break through to your best self and shine through authentically on the stage? Are you ready to finally tell your inner critic to shut up, so the real you can speak up?

Book excerpt: Gripping, personal stories about the life and death of President Kennedy.

Those who worked closely with the president, civil rights leaders, celebrities, prominent journalists, and political allies are among the many voices asked to share their reflections on the significance of that day and the legacy of JFK.

Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race,” a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of black women and men—bodies exploited through slavery and segregation, and, today, threatened, locked up, and murdered out of all proportion. What is it like to inhabit a black body and find a way to live within it? And how can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden? Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates’s attempt to answer these questions in a letter to his adolescent son. Coates shares with his son—and readers—the story of his awakening to the truth about his place in the world through a series of revelatory experiences, from Howard University to Civil War battlefields, from the South Side of Chicago to Paris, from his childhood home to the living rooms of mothers whose children’s lives were taken as American plunder. Beautifully woven from personal narrative, reimagined history, and fresh, emotionally charged reportage, Between the World and Me clearly illuminates the past, bracingly confronts our present, and offers a transcendent vision for a way forward.

Book excerpt: Which side of the line do you live on? In 1954 the Supreme Court ruled that little Linda Brown couldn't be excluded from a public school because of her race. In that landmark decision in Brown v. Board of Education, the court famously declared that public education must be "available to all on equal terms." But sixty-six years later, many of the best public schools remain closed to all but the most privileged families. Empowered by little-known state laws, school districts draw "attendance zones" around their best schools, indicating who is, and who isn't, allowed to enroll. In many American cities, this means that living on one side of the street or the other will determine whether you leave eighth grade on a track for future success - or barely able to read. In Separated By Law, bestselling author Tim DeRoche takes a close look at the laws and policies that dictate which kids are allowed to go to which schools. And he finds surprising parallels between current education policies and the "redlining" practices of the New Deal era in which minority families were often denied mortgages and government housing assistance because they didn't live within certain "desirable" zones of the city. It is an extraordinary story of American democracy gone wrong, and it will make you question everything you think you know about our public education system.

Download or read book May the Best Team Win written by Andrew S. Zimbalist and published by Brookings Inst Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Major League Baseball is experiencing a period of distinct uncertainty. Average game attendance has fallen since the 1994 strike. Congress has called into question baseball's presumed antitrust exemption. Broadcast rights disputes for popular teams have created complications for fans. However, new stadium facilities and, more important, the renewed excitement brought to the game by shattered batting records and the blazing pitchers of the late 90's brought fans back. A strike was narrowly averted at the end of the 2002 season, a campaign that yielded one of the most exciting post-seasons yet, with the unlikely Anaheim Angels claiming the coveted World Series trophy.Beneath these encouraging developments deep problems persist within Major League Baseball. Though a labor agreement was finally reached between players and owners, the specter of another dispute looms in the minds of fans. The new agreement, while a positive step, introduces several perverse incentives and will only make a modest dent in baseball's economic deformities. While Commissioner Bud Selig's proposal to eliminate two under-performing franchises was put on hold, the Players Association has agreed not to challenge an owner effort to contract two teams before the 2007 season. Beyond that, Selig himself has become the object of controversy, as questions regarding his possible conflicts of interest and poor leadership taint his reign over baseball. Disputes surrounding the establishment of regional sports networks, such as New York's YES network, make it more difficult and expensive for fans to watch their favorite teams. Tough questions about baseball's presumed special antitrust status have been raised by many, including an official Congressional inquiry.This book explores the abuses and inefficiencies in the functioning of the baseball industry and how these problems are directly connected to Major League Baseball's monopoly status, its presumed exemption from antitrust regulation, and public policy. Andrew Zimbalist, a noted sports economist, spares no criticism for baseball's current leadership. He asserts that the biggest problem for baseball remains the economic realities of its monopolistic practices. The absence of competitive pressure has bred arrogance, laxity, and inefficiency in Major League Baseball, according to Zimbalist. Among other recommendations, he argues that lifting the presumed exemption would allow government and judicial oversight, with an eye toward ending the abuses.May the Best Team Win provides a solid, hard-hitting analysis of the current state of America's pastime. Easily accessible and highly informative, it is bound to become a standard reference tool for fans seeking a deeper understanding of the important issues

Book excerpt: Evaluating Public Communication addresses the widely reported lack of rigorous outcome and impact-oriented evaluation in advertising; public relations; corporate, government, political and organizational communication and specialist fields, such as health communication.

Evaluating Public Communication provides clear guidance on theory and practice for students, researchers and professionals in PR, advertising and all fields of communication.
