If one is just getting started, Getting Started in Consulting is probably the book to read. This book doesn't have as much start up information as that book.

Si es la primera vez que lees al autor, probablemente te resultará muy útil.

Great information about the consulting side of business and how to use it to your advantage whether you are consulting yourself or hiring outside consultants to work for you. Lots of valuable information to be gleaned.
