I think Marguerite means "Managing Your Documentation Projects" by
Hackos. ISBN 0-471-59099-1. AFAIK, the *only* book specifically
addressing project management in a tech writing environment.

if your boss is measuring the worth of a book by its weight, you might
prefer JoAnn Hackos' book, _Managing a Publications Department_.
Probably more than you ever want to know.
