Finally, the PM profession has a follow-on to Linn Stuckenbruck's "The Implementation Of Project Management: The Professional's Handbook." Lew and Dave have packaged the esentials of the PM profession in one excellent book. The only thing lacking would be some templates for examples. I now have a replacement text, to accompany the "Guide to the PMBOK," for the PM courses I teach. This book is where the PM profession is going.

David and Lew and achieved a great deal in project management. Now, they are practicing what they preach. This book, much like a Work Breakdown Structure, is a thoughtful, logical (and very readable) decomposition of the work to be done in establishing and maintaining individual projects or a vast project management enterprise.

The Best Feature? The annotated bibliographies are peerless in terms of adding value and pointing toward other quality project management information.

Good detail from the work package to the program level.

I struggled through months of preparation for the PMI exam until I ordered this book. In this one reference, I was able to find all of the detail that was required to master the practice exams and that wasn't included in the PMBOK.

Since passing the PMI exam, this is the only PM book that remains on my desk. It is my key PM reference with pratical approaches to most of the issues faced by PM's today. Now that I am mentoring other PM's, this has become the first tool that I recommend for improving their day-to-day PM practices and preparing for the PMI Exam.

A very good collection of Project Management articles. This book covers most day-to-day challenges a Project Manager faces. I no longer have to refer to various textbooks and journals on PM all the times. On the flip side, the illustrations are tardy, at times illegible.
