The Underground Guide to Telecommuting: Slightly Askew ... (ISBN 0201483432)

Amazon.com Review:
Are you working from a home computer right now? Would you prefer to work from home? If so, consider getting The Underground Guide to Telecommuting, one of the livelier and more irreverent guides to telecommuting. I've telecommuted on-and-off since 1989, so I can honestly say that Leonard discusses most of the important bases: setting up a good workspace, establishing reliable telecommunications, and, most importantly, dealing with zoning boards, the postal service, bosses, your neighbors, and even the IRS. As an interesting aside, I was struck by the playful, and conversational writing style of this book. I have often noted that people's writing changes when working from home - in part because of the greater freedom, sleep deprivation from enjoying working too much -- and not having anyone to talk to!

Woody's Leading the Pack - Outa Town!:
The 1st tellecumiting guide, the ONLY one from an author running a giga-business from home... In his signature toungue-in-cheek practical style, Woody Leonard lays out the benefits & pitfals of telecommuting. His true experiences alone are worth the price - Mr. Leonard runs this business and successful web-site, (...), from his home. I'm following his advice as I set up my in-home consulting - so my opinion is also based on practical experience. The book is a bit dated in its recommendations for equipment, but the principals hold true! I found the book by asking a professional e-mail list for recommendations - 100% of the 20+ responses recommended this book, and I recommend it without reservstion - 100%!!
