Excerpt from The Humorous Speaker: A Book of Humorous Selections for Reading and Speaking Court history we read that a crown was paid to one who had succeeded in making the king, Edward II., laugh - a medicine which was doubtless more valu able and efficacious than a dozen prescriptions from the pharmacopmia. A hearty laugh is medicinal and remedial, and Hippocrates believed and de clared that a physician should possess a ready humor as a part of the equipment for healing, and Galen informs us that Esculapius himself wrote comedies and commanded them to be read to his patients for the promotion of a healthful circula tion of the blood. A noted physician of Richmond, Virginia, Dr. Robert Coleman, whose success was eminent, was said to have accomplished as many cures by his' wit and humor as by the drugs he pre scribed. His entrance into a sick-chamber brought an atmosphere of cheerfulness, which assisted the receptivity of the patient, and, to quote the homely comparison of Mother Hubbard's dog, many a friend who left a sick one with the thought that nothing more was needed but a coffin, returned to find him laughing and on the highway to recovery. The world is not without illustrious examples and advocates of the excellence and benefit of a hearty laugh. The emperor Titus insisted that he had lost a day if he had passed it without laughing, and Chamfort was accustomed to tell his friends that the most utterly useless and lost of all days was the one upon which he had not laughed.

Public speaking can be terrifying. For David Nihill, the idea of standing in front of an audience was scarier than cliff jumping into a thorny pit of spiders and mothers-in-law. Without a parachute or advanced weaponry. Something had to change. In what doesn't sound like the best plan ever, David decided to overcome his fears by pretending to be an accomplished comedian called "Irish Dave" for one full year, crashing as many comedy clubs, festivals, and shows as possible. One part of the plan was at least logical: he was already Irish and already called Dave. In one year, David went from being deathly afraid of public speaking to hosting a business conference, regularly performing stand-up comedy and winning storytelling competitions in front of packed houses. And he did it by learning from some of the best public speakers in the world: stand-up comedians. Do You Talk Funny?: 7 Comedy Habits to Become a Better (and Funnier) Public Speaker shows how the key principles of stand-up comedy can be applied to your speaking engagements and presentations to make you funnier, more interesting, and better looking. (Or at least two of the three.) Whether you are preparing for a business presentation, giving a wedding toast, defending your thesis, raising money from investors, or simply want to take on something you're afraid of, this book will take you from sweaty to stage-ready. You'll learn how to: - Craft a story and content that your audience will want to listen to - Find the funniest parts of your material and how to get to them faster - Deal with stage fright - Master the two most important parts of your performance: timing and delivery Ten percent of the author's proceeds from this book will go to Arash Bayatmakou via Help Hope Live until he is fully back on his feet and thereafter to one of the many facing the same challenges after suffering a severe spinal cord injury.

Excerpt from The Humorous Speaker: Being a Choice Collection of Amusing Pieces, Both in Prose and Verse, Original and Selected; Consisting of Dialogues, Soliloquies, Parodies, &C But humor 's good, And fun is good, If we but rightly use it would. It trains the laughing power, at least, Which measures, they say, 'twixt man and beast; For, though sometimes With brutes he chimes, Nay, Often shoots Below the brutes, For example, in much Of the liquor he quafi's, Yet is he the only creature that laughs. Hyenas, true, And monkeys too, Are a sort Of ghastly, grinning crew; But the genuine laugh belongs to man, And he ought to enjoy it as best he can. There 1s a time to laugh, the wise man said.
