3.0 out of 5 stars A Simple Intro for Project 2002...but you need more..., February 13, 2003

By	Brian "beflogic" (Burbank, CA United States) - See all my reviews

I went through the book, cover to cover, word for word...doing all the examples whose files came from the included CD-ROM...never ran into any problems. Everything worked fine.
I guess I felt like a soldier marching through all the features in a logical progression. The book tells you what to type in step by step...introduces you to all the features (there is a lot that you can do with project 2002 besides manage your own project...eg., you can consolidate projects so that you have a project plan that contains other project plans that you can view and edit...you can create a VBA (Visual Basic Appliation) macro to run and update your HTML project plan...you can learn about Earned Value Analysis, which gives you additional insight into how your project is progressing (maybe similar to the internal rate of return used in Financial analysis to give you a report card on how well your investment is doing)...
I found the chapters were simple to step through and complete. The authors have a somewhat cut and dried tone that actually seems to suit the purpose at hand well, which is to drag you through all the features and details of project 2002 in a limited amount of space and time....And they do this in 369 pages (the chapters only, not the appendices) instead of over a 1000 pages as some books. So the book is for the beginner in Project, If you already have knowledge of project or read any other books on it, you'll want to find something more intermediate or advanced and this won't do it for you. I liked the book for keeping an even keel and not going off on any tangents...they had a goal to show you all the features and seem to accomplish that...Their treatment of many of the subjects in the book are elementary and you'll need to find other books eg., on VBA, to pursue it further.
What it purports to do is give you a step by step introductory knowledge of project 2002 with real world examples. So what doesn't it do? What it doesn't do is commit to showing you how to apply project management which is really what you want to do....knowing all the features is nice but show me a coherent "way" to put it into action...I think I need to get another book to do that.

1.0 out of 5 stars Anesthesized treatment, January 30, 2003

By	Steve Carmeli (Corona, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I was disappointed by this book. Simply put I learned virtually nothing. Why? After all, the CD ROM's contents synchoronized with the book 99.9% of the time, and I easily recovered from the few errors there; there was probably only 3 typos in the book. It was written by a Microsoft Certified Professional and a Project Management Professional, so what could go wrong? This book was a recipe book, that's what. It explained virtually nothing. Microsoft Project 2002 is an abstract product. You're using views and tables all the time but the authors didn't explain what those views and tables were, how the the columns related to one another, what the contents of the columns meant, and so on. I was just blindly following instructions. While making mistakes isn't a good idea its one way of learning. By giving you completed files for every chapter, you don't learn, and that's what was wrong with this book. To give you an idea of what I mean, I had to look up how to connect tasks when I finished the book because I entered so few. This book was more like an extended tour of Project 2002 than an in-depth of tutorial. I just feel Microsoft had its hand in the preparation of the book and made sure the outcome was a "safe" treatment of the product. As such, I'm reluctant to buy Project Inside-Out. By the way, this book is about Project Standard, not Project Professional.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good tutorial text for first-time users, April 3, 2003

By A Customer

The Step-by-Step series on MS Project has been a staple for several years now. Don't expect a lot of advanced coverage, but the book is a solid starter book with clearly written instructions and a fairly engaging case-based set of exercises.

Work through the exercises, though. It's a "hands-on" kind of book!
