Required reading for Royal Roads project management course. Overall a very helpful book. The layout of a bit strange (lots of bad clipart and awful stock photos) but the content is helpful and well thought advice for good project management. Written in a fairly relatable way (not a bunch of formal PMBOK stuff). Some chapters are better than others -- it gets a bit thin towards the end with short chapters that don't go into a lot of depth.

Reads like an annotated PowerPoint presentation. The chapters are littered with weird stock photos of people with quotes from the text.
Lewis is a great source of Project Management knowledge. The book is full of great information. I think it could be a bit thinner by eliminating the unnecessary powerpoint slides.
