Is he writing it himself? If not, I think what you need is a ghost writer (if he's willing to pay). I'd suggest you search under "ghostwriter" or "ghostwriting" on the web. There are many companies, individuals who do that. Contact some of them and compare their experience and fees. You then write a proposal and submit them to agents/publishers. Normally, you would submit the proposal before the book is complete for nonfiction.If you can't find an agent/publisher, you can always self publish. There are publishing companies who would assist people doing self publishing. Read "Publishing for Idiots". It's very helpful.

I used OpenOffice to create one (it's free).  It was pretty easy. You just write the book and export it as a PDF. \n\nOne other thing to consider is that you will probably want to create a book cover, either using ebook cover creating software or hiring a graphic designer to do it for you.

Advertising - in company promotions flyers, e-mails. Have self development books that will attract individuals.

Identify books or info in your library that will be useful to staff members doing in-house courses or external courses.\n  Legal department - look for law reference books they need.\n  Your operational, procedural and process flow staff can be targeted with books on those areas.\n  Your sales people should be rated on how up to date they are with sales theory and what books have they read.

The best thing to do is to put your self to your work. do not do it just to comply with your project. do it as if you love doing it and you will stay awake. I love reading books. no matter how boring the books are i am kept awake till 4 a.m. just because i like books and reading.    Also, soak your feet in a bucket of water but it is quite not good for it was said to have mental side effects on the future.

Bring in popular authors for readings and question/answer periods, particularly authors.\n\nMake sure your window displays feature popular books as well as quirky, youth-oriented choices.\n\nAdvertise on the local university/college campus and consider putting a 10% off coupon in the newsletters at local K-12 schools.  Get the kids involved by saying the discount is for people under 18 only, so the kids have to come in with their parents.
