Customer Reviews

Great Project Book

This is, out of several project engineering books I have referred to, the most straightfoward, well written, logical, and useful texts about projects, and project engineering. It does not get into complex project theory (useless bull), but rather gives good, in depth, practical advice, in a relatively small book. This book is not only good for the information about computerized management system, it's good information about projects in general.

Great reference for project managers.

This book is a great refererence for anyone who is responsible for managing multiple, small, concurrent, fast-track projects. This is a very understandable and well written book. Westney gives thurough detail of all of the basics of project management. He shows how project management software packages can be used to organize and simplify the complex network of aspects that must be managed in projects. One of the best things about this book is that the author avoids being product specific in regard to software application.
