Download The Elements of Expression AudioBook Free
A FUNNY and useful e book for language addicts! There are many grammar and use books that give advice on appropriate English. This isn't one of them. The Elements of Expression targets expressiveness as an objective apart from setting it up technically right. Picture the yawns a sportscaster would generate by announcing, "His bat struck the ball and the ball went in to the stands," rather than "He needed that ball downtown!" And why say, "I'd like it if you didn't volunteer your viewpoints," if what you truly suggest is "When I'd like your advice, I'll conquer it out of you" (Chuck Norris, Code of Silence)? Written with uncommon wit and humor, The Elements of Manifestation offers authors, loudspeakers, and self-improvers a fresh look at how they express (or neglect to communicate) their thoughts and feelings. Plotnik supplies many engaging examples of adventurous language to show the tremendous electric power of words to describe and enliven real human experience. For those who care about words and want to create or speak forcefully, effectively-in a phrase, expressively-this is the audiobook to turn on!
