Good on scheduleing, not good on planning
The technical treatment of schedule development was very thorough - from development, precedence diagrams, durations, resource allocation, and money and earned value. The short interval and linear schedules, which are not coverd by most books, provided an additional real world perspective. Although computer scheduling was covered, the focus remained on the therory and method that drives these ...

Strategic guide to strengthening your company's project-management capability
The ninth edition of Harold Kerzner's substantial, substantive project-management guide offers the comprehensive charts, diagrams and graphs you would expect in a graduate-level textbook, and yet it is surprisingly readable and relevant. Considered by many to be the leading "project management bible" in the planning industry, Kerzner's book is a tour de force. Its 1,000-plus pages, thorough case ...

Learn How to Manage Maintenance from a Real Pro
Maintenance is one of the, if not the, most difficult functions to manage and control in industry. Left alone, maintenance tends toward chaos: fighting fires, too busy for PM, repeat failures, with senior management often unappreciative and non-supportive. Nevertheless, without good maintenance, industry can't run. How does one move from chaos to Control? Mr. Nyman has written the definitive ...

When you really want to know how to manage a project.
When you look at the goals of this book they are things like develop a methodology that works, using common tools like PERT, CPM, setting up communications within the team; in essence the real things that make a project successful. This also means that you learn enough that if you want to take the PMP test, you have the background and understanding to pass it. This is the fourth edition of a ...

READ THIS BOOK FIRST!!
Film Scheduling is the basic primer of how to schedule a film. There are very expensive computer programs that will help you in scheduling -- but you have to first understand the process. This book is written by an experienced, working, Hollywood film producer. Best $20 you'll spend. Cheaper than film school! Spend a little more and get the other books Singleton's written as well and you'll be on ...

Not the best book out there
This was presented as a text for a continuing education class and I read it cover to cover. For a third edition, it still has a lot of typos and other annoying errors. It just doesn't seem like a professional manual. There is no glossary, and much of the book is taken up by tables and specs for an imaginary project. Also, I an others in the class who have years of experience in the trades ...

The best book I have found for pure Inventory Mgt:
For my line of work, which is strictly in support of inventory management, in a large organization, this book is the best and most comprehensive reference I have found for inventory management. Other references, such as Chopra's or Shapiro's, offer an excellent survey in the broader topic of supply chain management but do not approach the depth of this text in straight inventory management. For ...

A nice book on machine scheduling
Pinedo's book is an excellent reference for almost all problems in machine scheduling. The author is very economic with words and yet the explanations are incredibly clear. I use it for a graduate course in Scheduling that I teach. I often find myself referring to it whenever I need to review some particular class of scheduling problems. There is a chapter on metaheuristics that explains how ...

A Treasure Chest
This is a short book which takes little time in bringing the substance to the surface. It is a compilation of articles from the journal, "Call Center Management Review". The authors do not take the time to "be nice." It is short, to the point, and of vital help to the first time call center manager. Picking up some of the "shorthand" references isn't difficult, but necessary.
