Rezension

"In summing up, the Construction Management in Practice embodies the results of intensive research by the authors which, inmy opinion, is accurate, informative, brief, and forceful - for thesuccess of the construction management process. Finally, this bookis strongly recommended for both, construction management studentsand practitioners." ( Construction Manager , July 2002)
"Providing readers with an up to date and balanced view of theindustry....the comprehensive nature of the text provides asplendid response to the perennial question what exactly doconstruction mangaers do?
The authors are to be commended on the breadth of their coverage ofthe financial aspects of construction management, which includesdiscussion on value management, risk management and lifecyclecosting. Both management and financial fields are treatedrigorously and in depth .... It is particularly heartening to see astrong emphasis given to quantitative decision making andoperational research." ( Construction Management &Economics , Vol 20/5 5 July 2003)
