Negative Positive
Title: Not a solution for all.
Review: I read this book in preparation for two speeches I had to do at university. Although what the book said (like adopting the communication orientation and not memorizing your speech) sounded really good and believable on paper, in reality, the book just did not work for me. I still got nervous during my speeches (I think in my case my subconscious or my nervous system is just too used to respond nervously to public speaking) and have since looked for other approaches to lower my nervousness. My mother also read the book and still got noticeably nervous during a speech she had to do. I don't think it is enough and more specific and intensive techniques are required to eliminate fear of public speaking for some people.
Is the review positive or negative?
