recommend a good book on project management for software developer

Hi there!

Can someone recommend a good PRACTICAL book on project management for a software developer. It should be not about PMI/PMP standard but more about practical steps how to manage software development projects.

PS, I have PMP but now I am looking for a practical book where I can get some tips/approaches how to manage an IT project in a real world. The project will be using waterfall approach.

Thank you
Mike

Hi Mike

Recently I read a book "97 Things every Project manager should know". It was a good book and compiles some practical experiences by Reputed industry experts

However i would like to enlighten you that there is some really good material right here on PMZilla which you can read in this section.

and also if you read the hand picked articles on this page
http://pmzilla.com/huge-collection-practical-project-management-articles

This is far far better than reading a project management books.
