Best Book on COMPLAN Development

Easily the best PR textbook I've come across. The excerpts of award-winning communications plans in the appendix serve to illustrate concepts discussed and explained in the text. If I could ask for more, I'd like more case studies included.

One of my favorite campaign textbooks

It is a comprehensive textbook with a nice blend of theory and practice. Right now, it's one of my favorites. I find the sections on strategy and evaluation weak, but the parts on formative research and tactics are really good. I use it for my campaigns class along with "Strategic Public Relations Management" by Weintraub Austin and Pinkleton. I recommend it as an appopriate textbook for an undergraduate PR campaigns class, but I don't think it can stand alone.
