 The
Underground Guide to Telecommuting
by Woody Leonhard
Here's a review
from a reader of this book:
"Let anyone who has worked
from their home leaf through this book for five minutes and see
if they don't laugh at least once, nod thrice, or even shout "Damn
right!" Leonhard dishes out the straight scoop on telecommuting--joys
and the hair-pulling frustrations alike--with humor and common sense.
He joyfully skewers common wisdom as he guides you through such
topics as where to locate a home office, dealing with distant co-workers
and nearby family, converting from employee to self-employed, tax
issues, and all the technical computing matters as well. Don't stay
home without it!"
