Identifying and Managing Project Risk by Tom Kendrick, is a book about identifying and managing risks on projects. The book is geared to be used by a junior Project Manager and Kendrick aligns the chapters of the Book to the Project Management Institute's (PMI) Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge, (PMBOK) 2000 edition.
That being said, there is a newer edition (2009) of this book, with significant modifications that bring it up to date with the current PMBOK. Much of this article no longer applies.
This text is designed to be used as a supplemental source of information when studying for the Project Management Professional (PMP) certification exam.

A frieze that lengthens continually, in the lucky way
