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.

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.

Recommended reading for course I took. Somewhat dated but still had some good info.

I mistakenly purchased this book for a class in Fall 2009.
This book's copyright is 1992. That would have been Microsoft Windows 3.1
