This book is for people who have recently left a salaried job and started up as an independent consultant. It contains the "Rules of the Game" for the freelance life.
Working for yourself is very different from being salaried. Your clients have expectations that you will do the job well. You are only as good as your most recent assignment. You have no HR department to turn to. This book will help you think through how to operate in this environment, and how to enjoy it.
Because being freelance means you are free, too.
