Unlike the Que book and the Special edition, the section devoted to taking Project online contains numerous screen shots and a step by step narrative on how to use and modify TeamAssign, TeamStatus and TeamUpdate. Worth the price for that alone.
Best nuts and bolts book on this software by far
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
I understand Mr. Klein's feelings, but the concentration on the software avoided a major trap of many software books and courses, examples that often don't match a reader's actual environment. I went nuts in several mainframe courses when the teacher gave examples that had nothing to do with my work situations.I would encourage Mr. Klein and anyone who is looking to project management software to view it as a powerful tool that allows us to imagine doing things we would never even think of doing with Word, Excel or a legal tablet. Also, this kind of software, if it is flexible enough, encourages us to explore new ways of thinking about the management process. The older, or cheaper, forms of this software were too limiting and difficult to work with. Project 98 and Lisa Bucki's book opened my eyes to ways of doing things I had never thought of before.Project 98 is a tool. The real issue is what do we want to do with it? Lisa's book help us to make better decisions in this area, if we will take the time to read and think about it.
