This work represents definitive and late breaking research in the project management area. To further illustrate the ideas covered in the research articles, Kemerer applies them to real-world situations through the use of book-ending case studies. | ||

Practical insights into software project management Chris Kemerer clearly shows his vast experience in the industry by selecting very relevant and insightful case studies to illustrate how and why projects fail and succeed. I recommend this book to all project managers that face the challenges of software project management. | ||
Great blend of research and practice This book nicely combines solid research findings withillustrative case studies, to provide very useful insights intofactors affecting software development productivity. Having done some consulting in the area of software project management, I found this book to be both highly relevant and insightful. The author brings to the table a wealth of research and real-world experience -- this clearly shines through in the book. The comprehensive case studies at the end of the book are most valuable, providing a practical context for the theories and models discussed in the book... I highly recommend this book to both professionals in the software development world, as well as to professors/students in the area of software engineering and management. | ||
Author Needs Experience in the Field I purchased this title hoping to garner some useful points that I can use in my job. Sadly, this turned out to be another book written by an academic -- someone without much experience in the field. You would be better served to find another title. | ||
