Ruhl, a computer consultant and staffmember on CompuServe's Computer Consultant's Forum, has tackled a topic that combines two of today's most relevant career-related topics: consulting and computers. This work thankfully dispenses with the typical how-to book's pep talks and exaggerated claims of potential wealth and personal fulfillment. Instead, Ruhl relies on facts and figures, covering such topics as the six types of computer consultants, incorporation, insurance, marketing, proposals, contracts, fee setting, billing, tax laws, licensure, and working with brokers. She includes a number of real-life examples, an extensive resource list, and answers to commonly asked questions. Well organized, easy to read, thorough, and up-to-date, this book belongs on the reading list of all prospective and current computer consultants.
