The book is geared to be used by a junior [[project manager|Project Manager]] and Kendrick aligns the chapters of the Book to the [[Project Management Institute]]'s (PMI) [[Project Management Body of Knowledge|Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge]], (PMBOK) 2000 edition.

That being said, there is a newer edition (2009) of this book, with significant modifications that bring it up to date with the current PMBOK. Much of this article no longer applies.

This text is designed to be used as a supplemental source of information when studying for the [[Project Management Professional]] (PMP) certification exam.
