The most important two things are a spoke wrench and, if you want it done right, a tensiometer. I have the books, but you can get adequate instructions off the web. Other tools are nice but not really necessary. You can true the wheel in a frame, aided by taping a pencil or something similar to the frame, or even using a brake. A dishingtool is nice, but not needed. I have a dishing tool and I've never even bothered using it. You can figure out of the dish is correct by flipping the wheel around in a truing stand or frame.
