1.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected, January 25, 2006

This review is from: Construction Risk: A Guide to the Identification and Mitigation of Construction Risks (Paperback)
Big surpise. The Product Details on the Amazon website states that the book has 400 pages. The book actually has 93 pages. It gives a very skimpy introduction to some terms. About 60 pages provide listing of basic and obvious 'risk events' with suggested mitigation strategy. At best this may serve as a simple checklist for beginners.
