I have just started my online business with this book at my side, it tells you about copyright laws, international laws and lots of other legal stuff that is required in setting up as a LTD, Partnership, Sole Trader or a LLP.

The book tells you how to write a business plan, how to get sponsorships from the Princes Trust and banks etc, it tells you what you should do in terms of laying people off if that should ever happen,

How to draw up terms of sale, disclaimers, how to employ staff, how to choose your products, search for competition, price your products accordingly, too high or too low is bad for your business.

.Managing for Dummies (For Dummies)

by: Richard Pettinger, Bob Nelson, Peter Economy

February 02, 2007
First, this book is a "fun" read which is unusual for most business books. If you want to know how mananagement thinks and how it works in most corporate environments today - get this book.

The first half is execellent and by the time it's completed you'll know exactly the way your poor boss has been tramautized over the past 10 years with all the new passing management fads. No wonder management is basically skeptical and seems to have a schizophrenic identity crisis.

The second half of the book hangs a bit, maybe the authors ran out of ideas. But the final Index of the 10 essential management books is invaluable. I've already read 3 of the suggestion.

Read this book. Take your boss to lunch, ... Read More:

.Contemporary Strategic Management

by: Richard Pettinger

March 04, 2004
Mr Pettinger continues to form the core of his taught modules at UCL around his (numerous) books. If not forced I would certainly not recommend it. As much as I enjoy Richard's lectures, his books are lengthy, incoherent and tedious.
