Sinopsis

Wordplay Wonders explores the captivating world of puns, jokes, and linguistic humor, revealing the art and science behind crafting clever language. This comprehensive reference delves into how wordplay, including semantic ambiguity and phonetic similarity, has been used throughout history as entertainment and social commentary. For example, Shakespearean jesters used puns to comment on political affairs, illustrating wordplay's power beyond mere amusement. The book uniquely combines linguistic analysis with cultural and psychological insights, guiding readers from core concepts to diverse applications in literature, advertising, and daily conversation. It progresses through chapters examining techniques like syntactic manipulation and their cognitive impact, highlighting how understanding wordplay enhances communication skills and appreciation for language's playful side.

    Every time you communicate, you're trying to move someone to feel, think, and act. You're trying to make a point. But very few communicators—regardless of their purpose or position—know their points, have true points, or even understand what a point is, rendering themselves pointless. 
     
     
     
    In this expanded second edition of the bestselling Get to the Point!, Joel Schwartzberg draws on his decades of experience as a strategic communications executive and public speaking coach to deliver a masterclass in high-impact communications for the digital age. 
     
     
     
    Using his trademark encouraging and often humorous voice, Schwartzberg helps you create impactful speeches and slide presentations, emails and work chats, and Zoom and in-person meeting communications. The book will also help you conquer public speaking jitters; leverage AI tools to support—not replace—effective communication; avoid common communication pitfalls; and much more. Whether you're a C-suite executive, salesperson, scientist, or student, Get to the Point! is a blueprint for evolving your written and spoken communications from informing to inspiring and pointless to powerful.

    The Picture of Dorian Gray -...

    Written in his distinctively dazzling manner, Oscar Wilde's story of a fashionable young man who sells his soul for eternal youth and beauty is the author's most popular work. The tale of Dorian Gray's moral disintegration caused a scandal when it first appeared in 1890, but though Wilde was attacked for the novel's corrupting influence, he responded that there is, in fact, "a terrible moral in Dorian Gray." Just a few years later, the book and the aesthetic/moral dilemma it presented became issues in the trials occasioned by Wilde's homosexual liaisons, which resulted in his imprisonment. Of Dorian Gray's relationship to autobiography, Wilde noted in a letter, "Basil Hallward is what I think I am: Lord Henry what the world thinks me: Dorian what I would like to be—in other ages, perhaps."
