3.0 out of 5 stars An intriguing, but not neccessary new MSP title, 14 Feb 2008
By The Penguin "JH" (Great Britain) - See all my reviews
I've recently qualified as an MSP practitioner and am embarking on M_o_R exams - which is how I spotted these new books from TSO.
They advertise as being like a beginner's guide to the MSP framework, and I suppose, in this respect they are successful.
The basics of MSP are expounded, and many of the figures from the main manual are reproduced, but, for me as a practitioner of programme management, the book is too long to be a primer (the pocketbooks are better for this) and too short to replace the manual as a reference material (particularly one which has been annotated as many manuals will be!)
It rather falls between these stools and fails, for me, in the third option I saw for it, as a guide for senior management to understand the basics of the discipline and their part in it.
It's a shame, and the cost is high for what you get.
In a market where there is a bit of a dearth of product for the 2007 MSP syllabus I had hoped for more.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for the beginner, 22 Feb 2008
While it won't make readers instant programme managers, Think MSP introduces the concept of programme management in a concise and easy to understand way, making it useful for those new to programme management.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good revision book, 13 Jul 2009
By D. Moyes "done178" (Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The book is quite good for general revision or for an introduction to MSP without the detail of the Managing successful programmes book. However, you'll still need the official Managing successful programmes book if you're planning on sitting the MSP test.
