I think that the value of the book comes more from the Author not the content. It seems that the Author is really well experienced in Networking and has a lot of genuine stories to tell. For me the keynotes of this books are the Rule of Reciprocation and how to use the LinkedIn Pulse. There are also some useful terms that I have learned and I hope I won't forget them i.e. the "Shotgun Networking" and the "Blind Requests". It's a nice book if you want to read a book between two books.
