Did anyone else wish the author just stuck with talking about public speaking than all the other issues he tries to play off of(ie. clean water)? I gained insights that I enjoyed but it didn't have to be this long and convoluted. Then again, may be he is just proving his point about public speakers:)
- mattm 17y agoIt's a sample chapter from his book, not a blog post, so the content will differ from most online articles.
- jeremymcanally 17y agoI have to admit I wouldn't read that book if that's indicative of the general content and tone. I hate how these days it's wrong to just write solid non-fiction without wrapping it in some vacuous story. Yes, illustrate your point, but make it relevant rather than just flowery words to make it more "readable and approachable." Bah, I say.

- joe_the_user 17y agoThe author's angle seems twisted and disturbing yet he's also describing a somewhat twisted and disturbing world...
