I have been thinking for the past some months if the project management approach would be helpful in the management of the scientific projects too. The reason for this thought to come to my mind was the troubles that I have, so far, witnessed during my Ph.D. studies amongst various research groups. Today, while reading a text related to the tools which we, researchers and scientists, need for our projects, I came across a book which was referenced in the text. This book has been written right on the topic that I was looking for. I am thinking of studying it soon.
