Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The third edition of Managing Multimedia has been split into two parts to reflect the current changes in the industry, and to build on the strengths of previous editions. Both volumes focus on the life cycle development of a new media project, with this text concentrating on the people and team issues and the other (Technical Issues) focusing on the more technical aspects of the project. Both books look closely at online development, inline with current industry trends, while still keeping offline development to the fore. The split into two books has allowed increased coverage of hot topics such as convergance, interactive TV and mobile communications.
