This slim volume provides a quick checklist of tools and resources for management consultants. I'd say that it is more suitable for experienced consultants than for new entrants, as a comprehensive and detailed guide could be ten times this size. Useful, nevertheless.

If I could apply much of advice given in this book then I would be a much better consultant. The writer's style and advice is approachable and practical and he covers everything in a concise and clear manner. Lots of valuable references to consultancy tools. A good read for all levels of consultant, regardless of experience. If you apply this book to your consultancy practice then I would doubt you would be anything but very successful.
