By
This review is from: A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (Paperback)
PMBOK Version 4 was initially released in December 2008. An updated version was released in May 2009.It is important to ensure that consumers are aware if they are purchasing the most recent version of a book especially when it is a professional standard. It is recommended that the most recent version of PMPOK Version 4 be purchased. The identifier is 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 and is located at the bottom of the Publisher's information page (2nd page of the text)

Useful for the PMI exam, but very badly structured,
This review is from: A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (Paperback)
The PMBOK, is a very useful book to pass the certification exams of PMI.However, this book of 350+ pages is very badly structured, and just provides lists of processes, tools and activities that a project manager should apply. There is no clear or in-depth explanation given for any reason why one tool is better than another, or when a certain method is appropriate of not. In conclusion you could buy the book if you are studying for an exam, but the PMI should take it's function as a knowledge center more seriously and take the scope of this "Body of Knowledge" beyond the joke that it currently is.

How to ensure you received the updated 4th edition,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (Paperback)
I purchased this book 2 days ago via amazon.ca and received it in the mail today. Worried that I was sent the outdated 4th edition, I tried following other commenters' suggestions and looked for the given number sequence on the publisher's page. Unfortunately, the numbers weren't there in my book.Luckily, I found another way to identify whether or not someone has the updated 4th edition. Google 'pmbok guide 4th edition errata sheet' and look for the link to the PMI website. After checking 3 indicators on the sheet, I established that my book was indeed the updated 4th edition. So, thank you, Amazon! I'm a happy customer!
