Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

A recipe book for storytelling, made to be dipped into . . . there is a particular brilliance in the anecdotes told here . . . moving it from textbook to something that operates like a well-thumbed cookbook, asserting its value with heart.—Irish Times

This is brilliant book; if you work in the communications industry it's a must-read.

A great new book on explanation by Ros Atkins - sharing the secrets that make him one of the clearest analysts in modern journalism.

Ros Atkins brings the same clarity and detail to his book as he does to the reports that have made him a well-known and respected figure on the BBC. This book is useful well beyond the media world.

I've read a lot of books about clear communication, knowing your audience, and getting your message across. This is the best.
