One of the frequent deficits of doctors when they assume levels of seniority is a thorough incompetence at management. We are trained with quite different skills in mind, like caring for individual people. Project management is not always well done, even for medicos involved in research — projects often fizzle out not because of problems with design, or messing up the sample, but because of pragmatic failings. So this book might have relevance to all of us involved with projects, and — look! — written for us health folk, and by true-blue Aussies.
