Summary: A must for teachers, professionals, or anyone who speaks!
Comment: As a part-time instructor at a two-year college, I found this book very helpful. Knowing your content is not enough when you are teaching or speaking to colleagues. Irritating physical or vocal mannerisms can turn your audience off. Read this book and learn how to correct these small but critical errors in your delivery and you're sure to engage your audience on a new, deeper level.
I was fortunate enough to hear Dr. Hillman speak. If you get the opportunity, don't miss him! He is dynamic and inspirational!

Summary: Good book to take your presentations to the next level
Comment: I found this book when looking for something above the many "basic" presentation skills books that are out there - and this book delivers.
Ralph covers the various voice qualities in detail, and the impact these qualities has on audience perception. He covers how to add more variety to your voice via rate, pitch and volume - each are covered in detail along with when to vary these for effect.
Ralph also covers how to support your voice, and then goes into the technical aspects of voice production and phonetics (via the International Phonetic Alphabet - or IPA).
The book finishes with tips on dress, movement, eye contact, external factors, health and practice. It also includes 27 exercises designed to improve your voice and overall presentation technique.
Overall this book provides much information that can help take your presentation style to the next level.
