From the Author
"Inside The Technical Consulting Business" gave me the information I needed to step out on my own after being told (at 55 years of age) that there weren't any projects for my talents, which wasn't true. Your book helped boost my confidence that I could make it as an independent consultant. --Lawrence King, letter
"Inside The Technical Consulting Business" is an outstanding book for anyone who is thinking of going into consulting. Harvey Kaye shares his experience as a practicing consultant in what works and what doesn't. This book will save the novice much time and grief on the way to a successful practice. --James A. Lacy, P.E., letter
I have just finished reading--no, studying--your book. It is by far the most useful of many materials which I have been devouring recently. --Mike Lockwood, letter
The book is a good read because it is transparently honest and leaves little unsaid about the problems which are universal in setting up a consultancy. --Sir Frederick Warner, Review in The Chemical Engineer (Great Britain)
It is refreshing to find a book with as many clear and practical hints that can benefit consultants and non-consultants alike. --Clifford Sellie, Review in Industrial Engineering
Kaye's practical down-to-earth advice is presented in a very readable style. He explains his points well, using analogies, humor, and personal experience to illustrate. --Karen Olander, Review in PV Voice Magazine
I have never written to an author before, but your book is so outstanding that I felt obliged to write. . . I have been a computer consultant for twelve years. Based upon my own experience, I think your book is an accurate and valuable portrayal of technical consulting. You have made a major contribution toward making engineering a profession. --Ralph Moore, letter

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Bahamut Media, Wallingford, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
