5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!, 27 Feb 2006
By Mrs Ochiobi "Book worm" (Manchester United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
I bought this book in preparation for the CompTIA Project+ exam and found myself staying up at night reading page after page.

Mr Phillips has a simplistic and unique way of writing and his humour is quite effective. The best bits though are the field interviews with actual Project Managers at the end of each chapter.

I have not taken the exams yet so I can't say it is a complete resource for the exams, but one thing is sure everyone into Project Management as a whole should have a copy of this excellent book. It has its pride of place in my book shelf.
