There is a definite reason why this book should be read along with The Art of Project Management. Don't be puzzled by the title which includes SysAdmins. Time management is a problem for Project Managers as well as a majority of mere mortals. The book is not a Do-It-Yourself Guide to Time Management, instead it provides some simple (and I daresay effective) insights into how to manage time.
The part which would interest folks include the chapter on Time Wasters and of course email management. The Cycle System of Management which spans quite a few chapters provides a way to manage time as well as put a priority to tasks.
Like all OReilly books in the category, it is well written in a flowing style that manages to sustain the interest of the readers. Read it once and keep reading separate sections of it as and when you feel like. It would become a must have for the shelf.
