Hi,

People at what level are benefited from this book w.r.t IT. What are the prerequisites that a person should have to be able to read and understand this book.

I am not a PM but aim to become one soon. Will this book be a right choice for me to start off with.

My aim is to become an architect, will this book help me in management perspective (non-technical).

I hope like all other HF books, this will also be a great success.

Thanks,
Harathi

You might find the sample chapter useful. See if the contents make sense.

Yes, I think so,First Head First PMP has a visually rich format designed for the way your brain works�a multi-sensory experience that helps the material stick, not a text-heavy approach that puts you to sleep!!

i'm sure you will enjoy+100% understand PM, if you wish to take the examination, this is very good book to start with.

regards~

First of all, thanks for the really kind comments, Hamad. That's really gratifying to read!

As far as the level for this book, we wrote it to be read by someone who has no specific experience with any one particular area of project management. If you've never worked on a software project (or any other kind of team-based project) before, then you might have trouble with it. But if you've been on a team, and have some interest in project management, then you should have no trouble with it.
