"Re: Confessions of a Public Speaker" [Hake (2010)].  The abstract 
reads:

*****************************************
ABSTRACT:  Presentations at professional meetings are usually 
soporific. For almost half a century physicists such as K.K. Darrow, 
Jim Garland, and David Mermin wrote articles which failed to improve 
the quality of talks at meetings of the American Physical Society 
(APS) and the American Association of Physics Teachers (AAPT). But 
hope springs eternal. Perhaps the insightful Scott Berkun, coming out 
of Carnegie Mellon with a degree in Logic and Computation and a 
sterling record of publications, can stem the tide of mediocrity with 
his latest book "Confessions of a Public Speaker."
