I had read so many good comments about this book that I was expecting something bigger, greater.
There are a couple of diamonds (business suggestions) but nothing out of this world.

It needs to be updated, some parts are just outdated with a 80's perspective and the recommendations seem way too obsolete for this changing business world.
