From the Back Cover

Project Management and Project Network Techniques, seventh edition

The key strength of this classic text is the clear and detailed coverage of the myriad of planning techniques that can be used to structure the process of project management. With comprehensive coverage of the concepts and principles of project management and the phases of managing a project, this seventh edition reflects the most recent developments in techniques and practice.

The authors have avoided orientating the book towards any particular industry or the use of any specific software, and distil their wealth of experience in a straightforward and user-friendly style.
