About this title

Synopsis

This third edition of this highly successful textbook represents a major development in content, approach & pedagogy; combining a strong academic approach with relevant practical cases.

From the Back Cover

Combining a strong academic approach with relevant practical cases, this text skilfully shows the range of issues that face project managers throughout the project cycle. Harvey Maylor considers projects as being a core business activity and approaches the subject from a strategic perspective, covering both the role of projects in the execution of organisational strategy and the application of strategic principles in projects.

Classic features:

• Covers a wide range of project settings, from traditional large-scale industrial projects through to small-scale personal projects, in both service and manufacturing settings
• Each chapter contains examples of ‘Project Management in Practice' as well as case studies, discussion questions and exercises to help you check your understanding
• This new Media Edition comes with a free CD Rom containing a 60-day evaluation version of Microsoft Office Project Professional 2003 to help familiarise you with the most commonly used project management software.

Project Management is used extensively to accompany courses on undergraduate, masters and MBA programmes, as well as for in-company training and for professionals wanting to bring themselves up-to-date with developments in the field.
