5.0 out of 5 stars
Good book on law specific to Construction,
By Focus G. (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Construction Contract Law (Wiley Series of Practical Construction Guides) (Hardcover)
This is a good book on law related to Construction Law and is well worth the money. I also like the hard cover. There is no "Construction Law" per se, but is Contract Law applied in Construction field, supported by cases, customs specific to construction. It is a good reference book.
