Project Management novel

Rocks Into Gold by Clark Ching is a similar idea to the excellent series of books by Goldratt where you read a fun fictional story and follow a character learning about something useful.  Goldratt's books are about the Theory of Contraints, this book by Ching is saving a company from collapse by restructuring a project in order that parts can be delivered earlier improving cash flow.  You don't have to be an accountant to appreciate it.  There is certainly a gap in the market for more books using this technique of combining fiction with learning.

  1. Later reflection: this was excellent preparation for Agile project work.
