A great resource for setting up shop

Andy Pressman is an expert on professional practice. As a former student, (I hope this doesn't taint anyone else's opinion,) I have had the opportunity of learning from a man that is part of the spearhead to change the education of architects and bring integrity back to an area that seems, in some circles, to have been forgotten: client relations. Written more towards the student, this book brings to light what it is to be a design professional. Also checkout Architecture 101, a more general approach to becoming a designer in the professional world. And yes that is my real name!
