Good quality worth the money
Very good quality a lot better than what I expected. I wasn’t too sure whether to order the book after reading the reviews but the print quality is good and haven’t found any missing pages so far. The pages are slightly grey which for me is not a big problem.
Thank you for your feedback

    I saw that many complaint about the paper quality - My experience is that, with the huge saving you make, the paper quality is not an issue at all. The text and diagrams are clear and there is no issue associated with readability . No question that this is a great value.

    I had seen mixed reviews of this book when I wanted to order a hard copy of the PMBOK but I am happy with the overall quality of the book. The pages are not fancy but they are big enough (almost A4 size) with clear text to read.
    I would definitely recommend this book to someone who prefers to avoid reading on computer screen and use the highlighters like me the traditional way!

    describes the sixth edition of the body of knowledge of the PMI institute for project management. A good book which is ruined by the grey paper and the watermarked which make the good content a chore to read. Hopefully this is removed in the next edition

    The Kindle version wins. Perfect for the Kindle Cloud Reader or my iPad. Easy to transport. Highlighting also very helpful (no fading!) and I can easily add my notes and web links. The content is the content. Better organized each revision. As PM's we focus so much on soft skills, this is one of my "look down" tools embedded in a template or other to help keep on track, or quickly reference.
