I have always trusted Nolo products so this book was a given for me. I like the CD that came with it. It is a very well written, easy to understand book.
This book is awesome. EVERYTHING you need to know to start a business. Tons of questions are answered. June 21, 2008

I've looked up a lot of resources on the net. You can do so many things for free on your own, don't pay the services on the web to do it for you. This book will help a lot. I've found answers to all of my questions here, in simple plain English:
Naming your business
Trademarks/servicemarks
Pricing your work or goods
Taxation (including some great ways to save money on your taxes)
Web domain registration
Choosing the type of business you want to own (sole proprietorship, LLC, etc.)
Web sites and e-business
Location (working from home, leasing a commercial site, etc.)
Writing contracts
Hiring workers if you choose to
Changing ownership in the future
Marketing
And a lot more...
The book also includes many of the legal forms you will need both in tear-out page form and on a CD-ROM so you can print out more copies on your computer. This book is easy to follow and thorough. I highly recommend it.

Skip the Small Business Administration or state small business websites. Forget the "For Dummies" or "Idiots" guides. This is the one book you need to read if you're serious about starting a business.
From taxes to finances to planning entry into a market, Nolo's book covers the gamut. Starting a business sounds intimidating, but it's really not...if you have this book by your side. The CD-ROM has a couple of useful files, but to really get the most out of the book you may have to follow their recommendations for further reading. It's a great place to start, however.
And be sure to order the latest edition, as laws change! [I reviewed the 5th edition.]
