2.0 out of 5 stars Not pleased with the punched holes.

Bought a book believed to be fully bounded as not punched with 3 holes that requires me to buy a 3 o-ring binder...not pleased with that at all .

3.0 out of 5 stars Could be more concise and interesting but did cover a variety of PM topics decently
Reviewed in Canada on 15 February 2017

Had to buy it for class. Not the most concise book out there. Certain sections felt like they were writing paragraphs just to fill space when the paragraph brings no light to the topic that that wasn't obvious in the header.

Case studies were decent reads but not explained that well, i.e. 'This massive project failed and went over budget by $5M. This goes to show how important planning is.' - doesn't really explain the specifics of where planning went wrong or any takeaways we can use in the real world.

Mathematical concepts were poorly explained and illustrated. I feel like we didn't need to read the mathematical proofs of certain equations - why would I need that in a PM setting? Would have been better to make it clear-cut, step by step instructions used on different presentations of data.

Nonetheless, some interesting ideas were brought up, for example, showing the different reasons that we lose slack in projects. Still a legible book that explained major concepts in project planning. Lots of practice questions for each chapter if you need it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book

I have been working in the oil and gas industry for 20 years and conside myself quite knowledgable in project execution. This book is an excellent resource even for those that have been involved for years. The concepts are well explained with a plethora of examples and case studies. I liked the book enough that I purchased a Kindle version to carry with me. Be carefule that it is only for the Fire or Kindle app not the actual Kindle device (go figure).

3.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for insomniacs!

The book itself came in mint condition. Vendor shipped quickly. No issues. The vendor offered the book at a fair price relative to the market.

If you've ever found yourself up late at night and unable to sleep, and reading stereo instructions doesn't work anymore, I highly recommend reading this textbook. Lifeless and dull, it's your typical textbook.

The content sufficiently covers the course material, but at $$$ per book you're better off trying to find a copy from the library or other sources. Even then, this book was a legacy edition and the new one was even more expensive...only difference being a new forward or cover design. Not the vendor's fault. They charged a reasonable and fair price relative to the market.
