Couple creeces but everything in tact! As for the content it is an extensive comprehensive guide. Perfect for any business student or ocd enthusiast who takes dayolanning way too seriously. Jokes aside it is an excellent study text that breaks down the intricacies of complex project scopes into easy to digest workshops. By the end you could plan a military operation while vacationing in the bahamas before your second cup of earl grey! Review: Love it - This textbook was one of the most enjoyable to read of any I’ve come across in post-secondary. This is not due to the content- just the author. She makes a pretty dry subject interesting and easy to get through.

Best purchase I've made
This book is such a good text when working toward the CAPM or PMP. The PMBOK is great, but more of a reference point to me. This book is an easy read and gives you an easier read. I am thankful that I read this book because I passed my CAPM on the first try! Definitely recommend to anyone wanting to learn on their own or wanting something to make a PM class a little easier. Note: this book corresponds and references the PMBOK.
