"Certainly not a handbook"
This is not a 'handbook' on social media, it is a collection of essays and reports done over the past few years by several different authors explaining the rise and importance of social media for business. Lots of statistics on who is using social media and growth trends over the past few years. But with the speed at which social media moves, the information is largely out of date going into 2013.
At then end of the book, you are really no further ahead then when you started .... unless you were unsure if social media is catching on.
Say something about yourself!
