The book has been written strictly as per the syllabus prescribed by the U.P. Technical University on the subject of Project Management. The subject matter has been presented in a simple and lucid form. Project scheduling techniques have been explained with the aid of graded examples to bring home the concepts clearly. Case studies taken from real life situations add value to the book as this will help understand the practicalities involved in the discipline of Project Management. No previous knowledge of the readers in any other related subject has been assumed and the concepts have been explained from the scratch. Though the book is exclusively addressed to the students of the U.P. Technical University, it will be equally useful to the students of other universities, project appraisers, project managers and entrepreneurs as well. About the Author K.
