4.0 out of 5 stars
Great introduction to the contract adminstration world,
This review is from: The FIDIC Form of Contract: The Fourth Edition of The Red Book (Hardcover)
The book is a great review of the FIDIC Form. It starts off with the origin of the FIDIC and how it relates to different (historic or current) legal systems, ICE, ACE..However, what I found great about the book that the author discussed topics such as Role of Engineer, Claims and Counter Claims, The Contractor's Obligations, etc. which introduces the reader to the big picture of the contract and as such enables the reader to relate to the FIDIC clauses and their relationship more easily. The bad thing about the book that it doesn't offer a direct explanation of each clause separately, but rather, interacts with FIDIC clauses per topic.
