A Must Have for your library

Eric has skillfully combined Project Management methods and practices with a practical approach to using Microsoft Project 2000. He gives an excellent presentation of the PMI Project Life Cycle and how Project 2000 can be used to follow that life cycle. The style of the book is such that anyone from a beginner to the consummate professional will understand project management methods and tool techniques to bring in a successful project. I especially like the use of a single project throughout the book. This gives continuity not seen in other reference books. I highly recommend this book as a must read for anyone in the project management community using Microsoft Project 2000.

Dynamic Scheduling

As a fellow PMP and trainer of MS Project 2000, I must say that I am impressed with this book. It has finally made available in a textbook, good project management principles, and how to execute them using the MS Project 2000 tool. The book explains why certain options are chosen and gives recommendations for handling various scheduling scenarios. I would highly recommend this as a valuable tool for any project manager using MSP2000.

Dynamic Reading

The concept of Dynamic Scheduling is a logical one, in that every task must be linked and the schedule is but a model of the project. This is a book that is extremely helpful and provides key project scheduling tips that every Project Manager or scheduler should know when working with project schedules. The book follows good project management principles and unfolds as one would set up and maintain a project schedule. The writing style is in plain English with explanations that are well thought out, including plenty of visuals, which is a great way to learn and actually remember - there is no "textbookese" here.

Great combination of project management and tools training

This book provides project management best practices integrated into the framework of Microsoft Project 2000. Not only does it tell me how to do things in MS Project, but it also tells me why!! I've met hundreds of people who use Microsoft Project, but only a handful who know how to use it properly. If you're ready to move beyond building a pretty picture of last year's project, and start building dynamic schedules that accurately reflect the status of your project, you need this book.This is years of experience in project management and the use of Microsoft Project that's built into one easy to use book. You can either read it end to end or use it as a reference book. Either way, it's great value for money.
