It is hard to say that an Earned Value Management book is interesting or engrosing, but this one really was all of that. If someone wants to learn EVM, then this is the book to get.

For me it is considered the "bible" of Earned Value Management. When I was preparing my dissertation work for my master degree this was one of the first books I used to understand the earned value process. It is just a perfect book if you want to understand the topic.
Para mim esse livro é considerado a "biblia" da Análise de Valor Agregado. Quando eu estava preparando minha dissertação de mestrado esse livro foi um dos primeiros que eu utilizei para compreender o processo de valor agregado. É simplesmente um livro perfeito se você quer compreender o assunto.

Very comprehensive. Still, only read it if you have to. The opening chapter was interesting. The next two or three kept my attention. Then it bogged down into Earned Value concepts with terms and equations. Seriously, only read it if your boss tells you your next project (and your review/raise) will hinge on using Earned Value and you have no idea what he's talking about.
Other than that, it's a great book. Just not what you want for casual reading.

An excellent guide for understanding and learning EVM. Very clearly written, thorough, and well organized. A great (no, excellent) resource for all project managers.

Fairly straight-forward, though nothing very attention-grabbing, particularly the examples.
