This is a very heavy university textbook. It has a ton of amazing insight, lists, examples and tested theories. It is repetitive but you will memorize the important parts!

If you aren't running or planning to run a giant company, you can probably skip or skim a few chapters and focus more on the idea generation and action plan.

Great gems but it mainly revolves around having a fortune 500 company or grossing half a billion a year in sales to really put alot of these projects and plans to action.

This is a great fundamentals book but it’s long winded and could have been about half the length.

I found Cooper's previous (3rd) edition quite useful in protyping Stage-Gate processes for product development.

I haven't finished this - as it's in many ways more of a reference than a read. But I like what I've read.

Do not compare anything to drowning puppies unless it is as horrible as drowning puppies, but choosing to not go ahead with a project is not that horrible. And it is not how you keep the dog population in check. The author needs better metaphors.
