The book focuses on assorted memories, meanderings, and musings related to my 52-year tenure as a Professor of Psychological and Brain Sciences at Texas A&amp;M University in College Station, Texas. Reflections on teaching, favorite students, funny and/or colleagues with whom I have worked, the history of the university, fascinating clients I have met in counseling, my wife and children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, thirty-five years of playing, officiating, and coaching softball, fifteen summers of Study Abroad experiences with over 400 Aggies, life experiences in Australia, New Zealand, Fiji Island, Iran, and a great part of mainland Europe, and stories of people and events that have transpired over the last fifty-two years of my life are grist for the mill. My wish is to amuse, educate, entertain, and perhaps occasionally antagonize the reader with my take on life as I have experiences it in the last half-century. The interested reader may want to also take a look at Okie Boy, Texas Aggie to gain a fuller understanding of the background events that shaped those in the present volume.

Offering tips and strategies in this manual for project managers, The Author -An experienced project manager- who has worked on many construction sites, never uses the word “problem” for the hurdles that come up during the building process. He prefers the term “issues,” because to call something a problem is to expect no solution, and a project manager has no such luxury. Balancing between the Moving Wealth (Team) and Fixed Wealth (Thing), this book, seeks to explain the role of the project manager and to offer strategies for those who fill that role.The Book has a favourite metaphor for his field: “the construction site itself can be seen as a kind of ‘delivery room.’ ” The building’s architect is the doctor; the client is the father; the contractor is the mother. The project manager, whose responsibilities are the focus of the book, is the equivalent of the delivery room nurse “in their ability to monitor events, and to identify issues that require immediate solutions, find those solutions, and implement them.”The Book runs through a series of situations in which various construction-related problems arise and walks the reader through the ways to fix them. By keeping a cool head and falling back on fundamentals like foresight, planning, and creative thinking, a manager can always keep the project on schedule and on budget.The book is written specifically for project managers working in the construction industry, but the fundamental managerial skills are applicable in any situation that involves a large team and accountability to a third party. This book is trying to reflect a quick, comprehensive guide to successful project management.
