The Art of Project Management covers it all--from practical methods for making sure work gets done right and on time, to the mindset that can make you a great leader motivating your team to do their best. Reading this was like reading the blueprint for how the best projects are managed at Microsoft... I wish we always put these lessons into action!" --Joe Belfiore, General Manager, E-home Division, Microsoft Corporation

"Berkun has written a fast paced, jargon-free and witty guide to what he wisely refers to as the 'art' of project management. It's a great introduction to the discipline. Seasoned and new managers will benefit from Berkun's perspectives." --Joe Mirza, Director, CNET Networks (Cnet.com)

"Most books with the words 'project management' in the title are dry tomes. If that's what you are expecting to hear from Berkun's book, you will be pleasantly surprised. Sure, it's about project management. But it's also about creativity, situational problem-solving, and leadership. If you're a team member, project manager, or even a non-technical stakeholder, Scott offers dozens of practical tools and techniques you can use, and questions you can ask, to ensure your projects succeed." --Bill Bliss, Senior VP of product and customer experience, expedia.com

In The Art of Project Management, you'll learn from a veteran manager of software and web development how to plan, manage, and lead projects. This personal account of hard lessons learned over a decade of work in the industry distills complex concepts and challenges into practical nuggets of useful advice. Inspiring, funny, honest, and compelling, this is the book you and your team need to have within arms reach. It will serve you well with your current work, and on future projects to come.

Topics include:

How to make things happen

Making good decisions

Specifications and requirements

Ideas and what to do with them

How not to annoy people

Leadership and trust

The truth about making dates

What to do when things go wrong

我买了一本影印版的，很不错的书，写的也生动幽默，但是，感觉实践起来其实有很多前提的，这种项目管理适合在非常正规的企业，大家都是很Professional地做事才行，不像在我们的国企，私企，内耗和其他一些东西对项目的影响太大。。。。个人感觉。。。。

我对这本书的第一版"The Art of Project Management"写过一篇书评,简单一句话就是对它的褒奖实在是过誉了. 原因主要有这几条,第一,最根本,它对项目管理的描述实在没有什么出彩的地方,讲的都是很普通的,大家都明白的道理; 第二, 选材很有问题,对于风险管理 (Risk Management),执...  

看到这本书，是在china-pub的计算机类的软件工程销售排名中，我一直以这个排名做为标准来选择软件工程类的书籍，所买的书，都让我非常满意，这次也不例外，虽然我只看了50页。 这本书是The Art of Project Management《项目管理的艺术》的第2版。 在头50页中，几乎每页都有收获...

本书缺点的确是有些散，如一盘断链的珍珠，讲项目管理，仍然是以Art而非Science来理解，尚不能有完整有机的体系来一以贯之。因为Science是有因果逻辑的，而Art则更强调一个过程；对于思维发散跳跃的人如我，发散易而收敛难，的确当引以为诫。但出于启发性，仍可作为值得参考的工具书，推荐购买英文影印版。 书分三个部分：1. Plans; 2. Skills; 3.Management; 都是在讲关于process的know how，用这根丝线来试图串起这本书，我觉得非常好看；

还不错，虽然很早前看的，已经不记得里面写的什么了

对比针对startup项目/产品写的<rework>，<getting real>或者<lean startup>实在很强... 那两本看了很激动, 这本完全啃不动一看就想睡觉... 努力看完吧...
