"This book is well written in plain, unambiguous English. It is for all serious project management practitioners working on any significant project in any area of project management application This is an academic tome, yet surprisingly easy and enjoyable reading the contents throughout the book provide incredible insights and sound and realistic advice." (From a review by R.Max Wideman, Fellow of the Project Management Institute, December 2014) Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through professionals/practitioners. (Choice, 1 February 2014)
This hugely informative and wide-ranging analysis on the management of projects, past, present and future, is written both for practitioners and scholars. Beginning with a history of the discipline s development, Reconstructing Project Management provides an extensive commentary on its practices and theoretical underpinnings, and concludes with proposals to improve its relevancy and value. Written not without a hint of attitude, this is by no means simply another project management textbook. The thesis of the book is that it all depends on how you define the subject; that much of our present thinking about project management as traditionally defined is sometimes boring, conceptually weak, and of limited application, whereas in reality it can be exciting, challenging and enormously important. The book draws on leading scholarship and case studies to explore this thesis. The book is divided into three major parts. Following an Introduction setting the scene, Part 1 covers the origins of modern project management how the discipline has come to be what it is typically said to be; how it has been constructed and the limitations of this traditional model. Part 2 presents an enlarged view of the discipline and then deconstructs this into its principal elements. Part 3 then reconstructs these elements to address the challenges facing society, and the implications for the discipline, in the years ahead. A final section reprises the sweep of the discipline s development and summarises the principal insights from the book. This thoughtful commentary on project (and program, and portfolio) management as it has developed and has been practiced over the last 60-plus years, and as it may be over the next 20 to 40, draws on examples from many industry sectors around the world. It is a seminal work, required reading for everyone interested in projects and their management.
