Why read it?
1 author picked Brains on Fire as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

What resulted is an incredible amount of learning beyond the book and another amazing WOM case study for them (and for a non-profit I served). If I hadn’t seen the positive results of the advice doled out in this book myself, I would describe it as the manual on how to build cults … but the good kind.
From Jason's list on word of mouth marketing.
