Excellent project pointers

This book offers very helpful advice on project management. The author is the founder and chairman of the Standish Group. This organization publishes the oft-quoted statistics on the rate of software project failures. (The percent of failures is very high.) The book offers pointers in 10 categories. I frequently refer to the book to check whether I am managing a project properly. This is not a how-to-guide. It does not tell you how to build a project plan or track a budget. But the advice is excellent. It is also a good place to get the 2004 project failure statistics.
