'The Complete Idiot's Guide to Project Management' offers idiot-proof instructions for managing a project, from the original concept through to completion and implementation. This description may be from another edition of this product.
I bought this book for my college term paper in project management, and it was very useful. Everything is explained in simple terms - as the title says: An Idiot's Guide... I wouldn't recommend this book, if you are looking for something with depth. This one is pretty superficial, but it grazes all the basics and then some.
Great information...thanks!

Just great. Understandable. Complete. Each edition gets better--although I still like the humor in the 2nd edition better. Great teaching tool and great for all general project managers, which is almost everyone in business.
Excellent for beginners

The previous reviewer is being grossly unfair. The entire premise of the "Idiot's Guide" series is basic information for the beginner. To fault the book for repeating information found in business education classes is missing the point. For those who do not have a business education but find themselves leading a project -- the PTA fundraiser, the Boy Scout jamboree, or even their daughter's wedding -- the book presents a wealth of useful information.
