Hollywood Assistants Handbook: 86 Rules for Aspiring Power Players was written by insiders and, here at YII, we know the value of insider information. But in addition to having real-world advice you can take to the bank (or to the top of the Hollywood heap), this book is a fun read. Each of the short chapters explores one of the 86 rules in casual, friendly language. Don’t be fooled by the tongue-in-cheek tone, though. This is serious reading. Pay attention!
