I love the series. Plain speaking, clear, easy to read, large font (do not need a magnifying lens for these tired eyes). Get this to speak "Project management." I really mean it!

This book is an easy read yet covers the project management process very well. What I particularly liked about the book were the additional insights into how to deal with common project management challenges. Also, the writer's style is friendly yet concise, making the messages easier to retain. I recommend this book to those new to project management, as well as to veterans in the field who would like a refresher.
