Bought this for my University of Winnipeg class on a discount, so couldn't pass it up. The book is decent, but it's taking me a while to get through since some topics feel a bit repetitive or vague. It's easy enough to read though and explains basic stuff well. Not the deepest dive I'd hoped for, but still kinda useful for making sense of project management without getting overwhelmed. Delivery took maybe 3 days and the book was in fine shape. I’ll probably stick with this for now but don’t expect anything mind-blowing.

The book provides a good overview but doesn't delve as deeply into advanced topics as I'd hoped. It's a decent introduction for beginners, though. Arrived on time.

Outstanding! This book breaks down complex project management concepts into easily digestible parts. The diagrams and charts are especially helpful, making it easier to grasp the theories. As a Prime member, I got an extra discount, so that was a sweet deal. If you're in project management, this is a must-have!
