Professional field guide for project management November 24, 2008
Volunteer committees at the Project Management Institute (PMI) created this guide to the processes involved in managing projects. Communication among clients, the project team and vendors is crucial to project management, so the book establishes a common vocabulary and a standard way of discussing a project. The book focuses on going from step to step with reliable coordination and smooth communication. Newcomers will find it helpful as they become conversant in the way professionals view and discuss project management. And, given that this is a standard work in the field, professionals are likely to regard it already as a reliable reference, including the useful process checklist. getAbstract applauds this manual's solid utility for its targeted audience. It is even quite readable, though it is directed only to insiders.

Non-receipt of product October 28, 2008
It's been almost a month and I have received this book. After two weeks, I looked online and reviewed the review of the sender. Too my surprise, I found out that the sender has a practice of not sending the product to buyers. I recommend this seller be taken off of Amazon.
