This book was a required reading for one of my MBA classes and it is truly magnificent. Check it out. Read it. It will change your life. Then lets discuss.

Sure, this book is concerned with building friendships and professional networks where people help each other without thought of reciprocity. Mr. Ferrazzi stresses this point emphatically. Giving without thought of reciprocity is the key to building long term professional and friendly relationships.

A quote from the back cover:

"Your network is your net worth. This book shows you how to add to your personal bottom line with better networking and bigger relationships." Tim Sanders, author of Love is the Killer App: How to Win Business and Influence Friends

Mr. Ferrazzi is a very personable person and after reading this book you want to meet him. I have been lucky enough to have several classes online with him and he is just as nice as what you get from the book.

Any other information that you would like, read the book. Then go out and buy a copy for someone else.

In the book are there any car chases or maybe some dogs that play poker?
