A should-read book on buzz/word-of-mouth marketing for the knowledge worker, manager, executive, or entrepreneur.
Jakelaub
Good if you want to know about buzz marketing and network theory. Otherwise only moderately pleasurable to read.
Keith Jennings
Great read for those interested in word-of-mouth marketing as science. Last chapter, a workshop, is a gem.
Briana
Okay if you're looking to learn more about marketing . .wouldn't really read it just for fun.

I read the older version of this because it's all the library had. It took me a long time to get through this book. It had some snippets of information that were really good and other times I felt like the author was just repeating himself. Because it was the older version it did not take into account the Facebook era of word-of-mouth. The new version might touch on this more and how to take advantage of what it has to offer.
Mark Cheverton
Underneath it all a fairly straightforward book about viral marketing. Although it covers some interesting examples, it fails to deliver anything new and lacks a sense of delivering a strong framework which you can go out and make practical use of.

Overall, a good book to refresh your focus on the importance of word of mouth and how you should think viral, but doesn't deliver on ideas or implementation.

It is a good book, outlining some of the major principles of word-of-mouth marketing.
However, due to the fact that it was written in the year 2000 it is quite outdated. Understandably, there is nothing said about the emerging of the Social networking websites and their impact in word-of-mouth.
I think that is worth checking the sequel: The anatomy of Buzz revised :)

This book has changed the way I view marketing. It gives you a great overview with much detail of how word of mouth and buzz spreads.

If you are interested in Word of Mouth Marketing this is ESSENTIAL READING!

All the best,

Explaining the theories behind networks and buzz marketing. However, not as complete and thorough as I would have liked. Covers the basics quite well.
Gwen
I hate marketing. I hate pop-marketing/psychology. Needless to say, reading this book for class makes me hate everyone involved in marketing.
Danica
Good information. The last chapter is definitely the best - the rest of the book expands on those ideas.

One of many books that came out around that time profiling viral marketing. Pretty good read if that's what floats your boat.
Robert
Pretty dry, but does what it says on the label. Enough case studies / examples to be pretty useful.

cukup memberi gambaran tentang pentingnya efek positif dan negatif dari suatu public opinion
