Ross Publishing is on the bookshelves!  According to one the reviews on Amazon: "I am very glad that I found this book. It is the only project management book that I know of that is filled with practical, real-life and modern advice. It does not simply concentrate on theories but covers experiences that project managers will run into throughout any project." If you a project manager or know project managers buy yourself a copy and a second to lend co-workers!
