SummaryThe author of this book, Peter Hupalo, self-published his first book, Thinking Like An Entrepreneur in 1999, thus beginning his company, HCM Publishing. This book appears to be the second book he has self-published, though he does not mention how many books by other authors he has published. I found this book relatively educational in that I think it would be useful, though by no means comprehensive, for a new small publisher. It is very heavy on numbers, spending most of the book discussing how to make a profit, pricing, taxes, and accounting issues. Unfortunately, most of the non-number information is common sense and rather brief.
