There are a only a few topics, which are not covered in adequate depth. You can study this book and pass the PMP exam. This is a great book and relatively self contained. Overall I recommend this book of you are using it in a course. Also there is a poor flow and a lots of hopping from topic to topic. Topics are not covered with enough depth. Unfortunately, this is not a self contained book. It is a very good book if you are either taking a course from the author or from an instructor who is using this book as a text book. A brief review of what I think are the top three PMP books follows: 1. I have recently read a few PMP books cover to cover, and I thought I should share my experience with other readers with an intention to help them to find the right books. I read the PMBOK 2 days before the exam just to see if there's anything the other books missed and there was none. At the end, this is an excellent resource for the PMP test. It would be better if you read PMBOK or other book that clearly shows all processes with the Input/Tools & Techniques/Outputs, before you get to this book. It could throw off some people who would just pick this book for passing the PMP. This book doesn't clearly state input, tools & techniques and outputs-I think it goes back to Rita trying to show everything logically. I felt that you need a little background on all the processes before you start out with this book. Rita goes through a lot of exercises and tries to make you think of the solutions in a logical way. I switched to Andy's midway and came back to Rita's. PMBOK I initially started out by using Rita's as my primary preparation material.
