The author has mastered the concept of the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and more importantly, how to present and use it in a Microsoft Project plan format.
A project is comprised of phases, deliverables and activities. This book is fully aligned with the Project Management Institute's Project Management Body of Knowlegde (PMBOK). PMPs and non-PMPs alike will appreciate the insight it offers in planning and designing succint, comprehensible and manageable project plans to present to project team members and sponsors alike.

The author has put together a great book. It can take a project manager from the training and practice field to the playing field to create effective and realistic project schedules.

This book should be on every project managers reading list. It is logically orgainzed. The explanations of the how's and why's to create dynamic project plans in Microsoft Project are complete. Beyond that Mr. Uyttewaal explains sound project management principles in clear and real-world terms. Whatsmore these principles are practical in their application and they work. The chapter summaries provide exercises that drive the concepts home. What makes this book so valuable is that even after reading it I can and do keep it within reach to use as a primary reference source. If you're serious about Project Management you will appreciate this book.
