The book (more like a brochure than a book per se) is pretty self-explanatory. It begins with a brief recap that Introverts are different from Extraverts in their battery charging and preference for tranquil & peaceful environments.
It then moves on and talks about when Introverts are frustrated/lonely/depressed and would like to interact more and gives very general tips. Such examples would be like: Introvert bumps into an acquaintance, decides to open a menial small talk conversation and hopes the other person is receptive to change to a more interesting topic later on.
In reality, the book doesn't really offer anything particularly new or groundbreaking from other similar books. While the writing is easy and without typos, it doesn't really stand out in a crowded field of similar books. Furthermore, it seems to mix up the terms "Introvert" with "shy".
Introverts quickly feel annoyed in noisy parties. They don't necessarily feel scared of speaking out loud. Many public entertainers and politicians are Introverts. They know how to give out a grandiose speech, shake a few hands with a cunning smile, and then quietly slip away from the room to rest in a private area without anyone noticing. The book sometimes makes this distinction, sometimes it confuses the two terms.
On a final note, the book oversimplifies the seriousness of people suffering from anxiety disorders or depression who happen to be Introverted. It hands out the same generalistic pep talk suggestions that a depressed person has heard ad nauseum: find professional help (without specifying where to search for the right kind of psychologist/psychiatrist), exercise some yoga, feign a fake smile, and eat healthy without specifying a specific diet.
It does delve a bit well that an average depressed person will not be all bubbly and happy 1 day, and then fall into despair the next day (if it were so easy, any ordinary person would realize something is wrong and be more willing to seek help). The symptoms are more gradual and sutil over a span of several days or weeks. The book is right in that an Introvert's innate tendency towards feeling frustrated with social gatherings will make them less attuned to notice the warning signs that a new depressive glut has begun. Sadly, the book is too short to really mention that a depressed person will not be in a glut of agony 100% of the time, but it enters cycles that wane and reactivate over time.
Over all, I guess there is no harm to try this book out, given it only takes 15 minutes to read it. However, if you want more specific information, or the nuances of Introversion, you should look elsewhere.
