The use of multiple case studies, which can be like looking at a car wreck, and slowing down to see the carnage, helps in cementing all the fundamentals that this text book brings forward. Compared to the the dry textbooks this book gives both interesting concepts and further reading. My only issue is that it may seem sometimes that they are talking down to the reader and for an audience that would typically be trying to achieve project management accreditation, this seams to be the only minor fault with the book.
