This is a must read if you plan on taking the PMP test, but it is long and dry. By "long and dry" I mean they go on and on and it sounds like it was written by a paranoid lawyer. By "PMP test" I mean the one given by the PMI people for program mgmt. By "must read" I mean you must read it. (This has been an example of the redundancy of this book. Bring caffeine and asprin.)

This book is out of date already. This is the 3rd edition, which has already been replaced by the 4th edition. All tests from June 2009 on are on the 4th edition.
As the other reviewer noted, this material is dry and boring. Yet it must be read and understood to pass the CAPM and PMP exams. But, not everything on the exam is covered in this book. (yes, that's very annoying, blame PMI.org)
