Project Management with MS Project CD + Student CD

As the market-leading textbook on the subject, Project Management: The Managerial Process, 4e is distinguished by its balanced treatment of both the technical and behavioral issues in project management as well as by its coverage of a broad range of industries to which project management principles can be applied.

It seems like this textbook has gotten bad phrase and for no good reason. This book is a college level textbook and is perfect in conjuction with appropriate teaching. A person can not simply book pick up this book, skim through a few chapters and expect to understand the management process without being taught by a professor. My advice, go to college and learn the process properly.

There are phrases and questions that worded very poorly. Many times I have to re-read a section 3-4 times to try to decipher. Many of the questions do not apply or correspond the text.
The exercises in the back of the book have not connection to the actual material. Quite often the reader is left to searching the Internet or consulting the teacher to fill in the gaps.
This is a very poorly written book, and will likely cause more confusion than it educates.

Be warned. The Office Project program advertised as included is a trial version. The ad does not say this. Now I have to turn around a buy a new program- Amazon customer service says it isn’t their fault. I really needed the book and the program for a class due to start in four days. Now I’m really stuck. Amazon is even trying to get me to pay for the return shipping!

Real world project management. Useful for business managers needing the experitise and tools to manage both ‘click’ and ‘mortar’ projects. Includes MS Project software on CD, which makes the price of the book very economical.
