Not recommended
I had hoped for deeper insight, more observations, stronger vocabulary, voice intonation etc...such as "women tend to end their statements in a question". Unfortunately there were few of these excellent observations, but an exceeding amount of words and procession of personal accomplishments, I was not looking for an auto-biography. If I had a need to learn which fork to use for a five course meal I would have purchased a book on Etiquette.

THE IDEAL TOOL FOR CAREER SUCCESS
Talk Your Way to the Top provides an easily accessible source for every sort of business etiquette and strategy--from which fork to use, to how to quell your pre-speaking jitters. Its language is similar to that found in women's magazines like Glamour and Marie Claire, so it's not only fun to read, it's easily absorbed. This is the sort of thing every CEO hopeful girl should carry in her pocket at all times--and I'm not talking girls who want to date the CEO, I'm talking girls who want to BE the CEO. Extremely useful--and narrow enough to carry around with you discretely all the time--the perfect criteria for a self help book is, after all, for no one to realize you need it.

Very Informative
This book is as useful for men as it is for women. I picked up good tips on, "How to work a room" and "How to get a New Job". With my MBA graduation coming up, this book has given me a better perspective of what the business world is about. I would strongly recommend that other graduate and undergraduate students read it.
