Rating:
Summary: Interesting, accurate professional handbook, useful MBA text
Review: This is an exceptionally clear and thoughtful transfer of concepts drawn from actuarial science to the project management domain. The mathematics are combined with well-written explanations and worked examples, so that concepts and techniques are accessible to readers from a wide variety of professional backgrounds. Each chapter includes definitions of terms, minicases, and exercises, with answers at the back of the text. Ideal text for project management or technology transfer course at upper division or Master's level, and extremely useful handbook for practioners.
