As with previous editions of this book, the author provides readers---both professionals and students--with a comprehensive, step-by-step guide to effective project management techniques. In addition to covering traditional linear and iterative approaches to project management, he also covers new adaptive and extreme methodologies. The author takes readers through each of these development approaches, step-by-step, and also covers the best-of-breed project management tools, templates, and processes that support them. He presents the pros and cons of these methods so readers can decide the best method for managing specific types of projects.
