This looks like a book I should read

Although I am more of a solution manager than a project manager I have managed 30 odd projects in my time and a fair few programmes.  I have gradually developed a dislike for formal methodologies and templates because of their tendency to prevent the team from thinking.  That said I think there are some key management skills that every project team needs, but I have rarely seen described very well.  This book looks like it is my sort of style,  it in my Amazon favourites in case anyone wants to buy it for me.
