Fancy getting your hands on a free project management book? Arras People is looking for book reviewers – but don’t sweat it – we’re looking for amateur book reviewers who are project professionals! Each month we have a book review in our monthly newsletter – and we also publish a few on the Camel too. We have a number of great books to review right now:
The Contract Scorecard – worth £66
The Project Success Method- worth £16
The Project Management Communications Toolkit – worth £66
The Project Manager’s Guide to Making Successful Decisions - worth £25
How to Save a Failing Project – Chaos to Control - worth £30
Thinking Harder – Being Smart about Transformation – worth £12
59 Checklists for Project and Programme Managers – £28
So what’s the deal??
If you’re interested in giving it a go – leave a comment letting us know which book you’re interested in – you’ll be asked to enter an email in the comments box but don’t worry this isn’t visible to anyone but us.
We will then get in touch via email to make sure we can get the book to you.
You can take up to three months to read and review the book – we need a 500 word (about a side of A4) review from you.
Take a look at previous book reviews to get a feel of the types of reviews we’ve had.
So what you waiting for; an opportunity for a little CPD for free could be yours

I would be happy to review “Thinking Harder: Being Smart About Transformation”. I enjoy doing that. This year I have already reviewed two books: Stephen Denning’s The Leader’s Guide to RADICAL MANAGEMENT (http://www.stevedenning.com/Books/radical-management.aspx) and Thomas Juli’s Leadership Principles for Project Success (http://www.thomasjuli.com/index_english.php). I also have worked as an editor.

I’m also interested, if you still need folks. I’m in the US so perhaps shipping isn’t worth it.

Hi Lisa
We have other titles coming soon – and some from US publishers. When they’re ready for shipping I’ll be in touch and we can get something sent to you directly – I’ll let you know what titles etc
Thanks!
Good morning!
I am in the US but would really appreciate the opportunity to review books for you if that would be possible. Please keep me in mind when other titles become available for review.

Hi Mark
It looks like all the books have now been taken but will come back to you when more titles come in
Thanks!
Ok thats fine
I love reading and have read widely on project managemernt. Infact, after doing my masters, I sought for scholarship to do PM, and almost got it, wrote a very good thesis.
Anyway, the rest is history, I never got it.
I would love to review the book:
The Contract Scorecard .
If that is not available, any available copy.
Thanks,
