Summary: Fantastic
Comment: The other people who wrote scathing reviews of this book are buffoons. This is a very helpful book and here's why: No, it doesn't tell you "how to communicate." Get Dale Carnegie for that. What it does do is list "key words," general explanations and various other ways to *make others think that you're a part of their group*. Every closed group of people (accountants, athletes, the rich, filmmakers, etc.) have their own jargon that they use to recognize each other. Once you learn these key-words and are able to have even a minimal discussion about someone's special interest, you're in. They suddenly see you as a "kindred spirit." This is a book for people who are glib and interesting already and simply need a reference regarding a ton of specialists. Tremendous resource!

Summary: There is No Way to Make This Premise Work
Comment: The way the book is laid out, it would be a heck of a lot to remember. It would be like something out of a comedy if you asked what each person did, then looked it up in the book! The only people it will benefit are certain kinds of salesman, who are looking for an "in" with a potential client. They would need to buy it. I gave it three stars, because it is good for the folks it should be serving, but not for everyday people.

Summary: Do not buy this book!!!
Comment: This is the single most useless and dissapointing book I have ever purchased. No one, who could have a chance to even flip through the pages would ever buy this book. If the author had any ethical integrity, she would immediately get this book off the market. Those of you who think that this book would have any redeeming value as a "reference"- dream on! Here's an opening line that she forgot to put in her book, "Hello, please wait while I set up my teleprompter".
