Whether you are making a toast at a wedding, giving your first presentation in front of an audience, or a CEO of a major corporation, the techniques you will learn will banish your fears of public speaking forever. Indispensable advice is presented through a story about former world-renowned opera director, Maestro Albert Snow, who finds himself assigned to the mailroom in the first level of Heaven. And quickly realizes-Heaven is not all he thought it would be. When his persnickety determination to take charge threatens to keep him there for all eternity, he strikes a deal with St. Michael and is given a series of nine missions. But here's the catch ... he is transported to Earth with no inkling of the problems he's expected to solve or even his earthly identity. Along the way he meets everyday people held back by the fear of public speaking. With each mission he shows them how to conquer their fears so they can share their unique gifts with the world. With Maestro Snow's signature touch of brilliance, creativity and confidence, he overcomes each increasingly difficult mission only to become lost and unhinged in his final mission. Captivating from the very start with a stand-up- and-cheer ending. This book is a winner!

Download or read book The Hidden Brain written by Shankar Vedantam and published by Random House. This book was released on 2010-08-31 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hidden brain is the voice in our ear when we make the most important decisions in our lives—but we’re never aware of it. The hidden brain decides whom we fall in love with and whom we hate. It tells us to vote for the white candidate and convict the dark-skinned defendant, to hire the thin woman but pay her less than the man doing the same job. It can direct us to safety when disaster strikes and move us to extraordinary acts of altruism. But it can also be manipulated to turn an ordinary person into a suicide terrorist or a group of bystanders into a mob. In a series of compulsively readable narratives, Shankar Vedantam journeys through the latest discoveries in neuroscience, psychology, and behavioral science to uncover the darkest corner of our minds and its decisive impact on the choices we make as individuals and as a society. Filled with fascinating characters, dramatic storytelling, and cutting-edge science, this is an engrossing exploration of the secrets our brains keep from us—and how they are revealed.
