520    "In eleventh grade, John Bowe's cousin Bill asked a 
       classmate to prom. She said no. Bill responded by moving 
       to the family basement--and staying there for the next 
       forty-three years. But in 1992, at the age of fifty-nine, 
       Bill surprised everyone who knew him: He got married. Bowe
       learned that Bill credited his turnaround to a non profit 
       club he'd joined called Toastmasters International. 
       Fascinated by the idea that speech training seemed to 
       foster the kind of psychological well-being more commonly 
       sought through expensive psychiatric treatment, and 
       intrigued by the notion that words could serve as medicine
       -- healing the shy, connecting the disconnected, and 
       mending our frayed social fabric--Bowe sets out to learn 
       for himself what he'd gathered from so many others: When 
       you learn to speak in public, you undergo a profound 
       transformation that has very little to do with standing at
       a podium. Through his own Toastmasters journey, Bowe 
       learns much more than how to overcome the nervousness 
       associated with giving a speech. He learns that public 
       speaking is really about the audience--it's the art of 
       paying attention. Ultimately, Bowe finds that the key to 
       eloquence, to overcoming shyness, is not mastering one's 
       self or one's fears, but honing one's ability to empathize,
       pay attention to other people, and connect"--|cProvided by
