"This is a truly superb book...Martin crams a treasure trove of information into 233 pages. His writing style is concise and easy to digest. I have never found another book that covers intranets in this practical style and so I thoroughly recommend it to intranet managers and their teams, to the senior execs who have the intranet within their purview, and to information management, knowledge management and content management practitioners who may have to deal with intranets, or advise clients on there development."

-- Jed Cawthorne

"Highly recommended."

-- James Robertson

"This book appears to fill a clear gap in the professional literature and its accessible style will ensure that it appeals to a wide variety of practitioners in different sectors. I certainly felt after reading it that any manager or project leader tasked with implementing an intranet would find it extremely useful when starting their planning."
