Book Reviews:

"The best thing about Social Media in Action is that it identifies and clarifies the distinctions between the many social media platforms, and how they are useful individually and in combination. Most importantly, it argues convincingly that the way to use them is to be present, get engaged, share generously and 'join the conversation'." - Jonathan Lerner, freelance journalist
"Social Media in Action is extremely informative and serves as a strong practical guide for building industry professionals of all types. It demystifies an otherwise complex and 'foreign' topic like social media in a way that people can easily digest." - Julie Obiala, Director of Public Relations for Gensler
"It is a succinct but powerful presentation of information that has absolute relevance to every professional practice.In only eight chapters and a useful glossary, authors Amanda Walter
and Holly Berkley present a straightforward assessment of the core benefits and challenges of social media, coupled with plenty of practical tips and resources.," Rich Burns, A/E Marketing Journal
