The book was everything I hoped for. Using Facebook is the only way to really understand it, but this book made the process much easier than I feared. A great reference for those new to Facebook.

This review is from: Sams Teach Yourself Facebook in 10 Minutes (2nd Edition) (Sams Teach Yourself -- Minutes) (Paperback)

This is easily the best book available on Facebook for a general audience. It is absolutely clear (with images of the Facebook screen for each action)and broad enough that it can be used for businesses as well as individuals. I cannot recommend it highly enough! An Amazon Verified Product.
