The Clueless Project Manager is a humor book on project management
written for project managers, managers and anyone interested in
getting a chuckle out of the work environment. It emphasizes the
many trials and dilemma of a project manager as he tries to deal
with problems on all fronts: his boss, the customer, the people who
work under him, the suppliers and the entire world that surrounds
him. The hero of the book "B.S." is a goofball with no
understanding of the formal techniques of project management but
outshines his "guru" by presenting him with thoughts that can only
come from true understanding of human interactions. The book is
written with the intent of sharing some of the best practices of
project management as defined and perceived by different
individuals. The book is also a reminder that most projects fail
not due to a lack of understanding of the technical subject matter
as they due to the lack of dealing with people. Lack of humor in
the workplace can be the biggest hindrance to a successful and
"high blood pressure free" environment.

In the beginning, there was the computer. And it was big. As big as
a room. Sometimes as big as a house. Early computers required teams
of white-coated scientists to keep them running, yet one of those
giant behemoths could not match the computing power of a single
microchip today. From the first massive computers to today's
nanotechnology, DIGITAL REVOLUTIONARIES offers a guided tour of the
history of computers and a celebration of the human ingenuity that
led the world from ENIAC to iMAC.
