I like business books that are written in a simple, accessible way and that also contain tips you can immediately try out in practice. That’s why some books “hook” me literally from the first lines, while others are heavy and tedious to read.
Leonid Bugaev’s book belongs to the first group. It’s an easy, fast read; I think a couple of hours of thoughtful, focused reading is enough. The author gives practical recommendations on building useful connections and offers a set of practical exercises you can test in real life, starting with your friends and relatives and ending with the people with whom you want to establish business contacts.
Personally, I read “Mobile Networking” with great interest, learned a lot of useful things, and I’ll be coming back to this book from time to time.
