The most important handbook for entrepreneurs

By Krishna Shetty "Krish Shetty" - August 29, 2003

If you are looking to become an entrepreneur, or if you are are already one, I strongly recommend you read this book--and take notes because virtually everthing in this book applies to every entrepreneur. This is a must read for every business person.
