Be careful - By: G. M. Brooke, 25 Jun 2008 
This book gives a practical introduction to PRINCE2. However, PRINCE2 certification is not based on the content of this book or any other, apart from, of course, "Managing Successful Projects with PRINCE2". So, where there are grey areasin PRINCE2, & there are many, the latter book is the reference. The other books may offer sensible advice, but if they were to contradict the reference book, or provide information notin the Reference book, you could end up being right but getting it wrong, at lest as far as the exam is concerned! My advice, if you want the PRINCE qualification, is to get & study the reference book, using a formal training course / trainer. The other books are for after the qualification, when you then need to know how to use the method.
It's only OK !! - By: Catkinsays, 14 Nov 2007 
I was hoping that this book would help me simplify the detailin the course books, sadly it just managed to confuse me more, the diagrams usedin this book, although trying to explain the same situation differin many cases from the course books & therefore can cause confusion. In isolation from the course books, or as an introduction to to process the books is probably useful. But asin my case, as an additional source of information working toward the qualification more confusing than helpful. It is however well written & more lighthearted than the coursebooks (and way less heavy/bulky) & therefore is a good portable option.
