Don't buy this book if you're memorizing answers for some PMP exam.

But if you've got a real software project you need to deliver, and you've got a team looking to you for answers ... this is your book!

It's clear, it's practical, and it's packed with excellent ideas for managing just about any project, of any size.

It's great - buy it!

If you are a practicing project manager, you may not find this book very useful. If you are new to Project Management (or planning to move to Project Management), then this book can help a lot. This book in my opinion is a text book (and a very good one). Book covers critical aspects of Project Management and explains planning and scheduling in an easy-to-understand fashion. I found the examples for backward pass, forward pass, constructing network diagram etc very useful. Author has used real-world examples so reader can co-relate to similar scenarios from their professional life.

It's a good book on project management. I wish it was more in line with the standards from PMI. Also covers some advanced topics such as portfolio management but not in much detail.

even though it is outdated. You have all the major ingrediants for PMP.
It is very low cost. The computer software MS 2003 is outdated, but you can download the free trial version 2007.
