520 _aA supplemental text for courses in public speaking, this book provides a clear overview of the process of human communication. It analyzes the behaviors that cause speakers to experience shyness, apprehension, or a desire to avoid public speaking situations. Further, it describes the effects of such behaviors on the communication process and a range of strategies to reduce such anxieties. Starting from the premise that speech anxiety is one of the most common obstructions to clear and effective communication, the text provides students with a greater understanding for the reasons that people experience such fears and concrete suggestions for how to overcome them.
