Nice to have 
In my opinion the title does not cover the contents. The contents is by far more textual than visual. I was expecting a collection of models, process flows, graphs, templates, forms and pics with a how to... Something like 50/50 text and visuals. So it didn't meet my expectations, not by a long shot.
However, it is a little more richly illustrated than the usual textbooks on the matter and the authors use clear language to explain complex systems. Further it covers some ground not covered in PMBOK or... more info

Pretty Good PM Resource 
I am fairly new to the PM role where I am responsible for other's work, so I purchased this book as a reference tool and so far it has helped in terms of having examples that I can start with instead of starting from scratch.
Other than that, I have relied on my leadership and team building skills to meet deadlines which proves to be more important that having the pretty models, charts, etc.

Good Textbook
This book was assigned as THE textbook for my graduate Level Project Management class. It is a good read, great at presenting its ideas, and easy to understand. It unfortunately talks only of a couple of project management techniques vaguely and what examples are included are very short with little or no good background. I'd sell this book as a good starter for those looking to gain understanding in PM, but with the understanding that other books would be needed for true enlightenment in particular areas.
