Project management - Dr Harvey Maylor

The book provides structures for the comprehensive evaluation of issues within the project environment with examples from a wide range of organizations, including manufacturing, service and the not-for-profit sectors. The objective of this analysis is to seek out sources of continuous improvement in all project-related processes.
