E-myth Revisited

[Ankesh]

I recently read E-Myth Revisited because so many sowpubbers recommend it. And was very dissappointed!

I thought it was very fluffy - and lacked the nuts and bolts - the details that tell you what to do and how to do it.

(The book was more about what to do and why to do it. Not much how to in it...)

Is there some other book or resource you would recommend for:

* hiring people and outsourcing work
* transitioning from you doing the work to your employee doing the work
* creating operations manuals
* growing and managing the internal structure of your co.

(I don't want to know why you should do all those things. I want to know how to do those things better...)

Would love to hear personal anecdotes too...
