Kudos to you on a very timely, detailed and necessary piece of work. I especially liked the chapters on collaboration and legal issues in using social media. The book gave me succinct examples and a roadmap for improving collaboration among all members of my own team. Every manager and educator needs to read this book and take every word to heart.
