Summary: A Decent Introduction
Review: "Managing Multimedia Projects" is a good introduction for the software/multimedia newbie, or for the manager who needs to understand the basics of what the staff is talking about. I used this book as a jumping off point, and found the chapters on "The Perils of Partnership" and planning and scheduling most helpful. However, Strauss covers a lot of ground (web sites, kiosks, slide shows, cd-roms) in about 200 pages, which means that the surface has only been scratched. Read this to figure out what it is you don't know, then come back to Amazon.com.

Summary: A helpful guide for multimedia managers
Review: After reading this book I found it very helpful on my job (I am a Webmaster and Multimedia Developments Manager in an University). It helped me to get a "top level view" on multimedia projects and also help me to organize better my ideas, and to have a clear overview of tasks involved in any multimedia development. I really recommend it.

Summary: Managing Multimedia Projects
Review: This is an excellent book for the new manager of a multi-media development team. The basic concept behind the book is that multi-media is software. As such, it provides an excellent process model that works for most multi-media projects. It even provides sample projects and describes how each project fits the process. I found it an easy read, and the book has been most helpful in the development of my own multi-media team and our processes. It works. Good stuff!
