5.0 out of 5 stars Facilities Management and the Business of Space, April 3, 2000
By 
Tracy Lamping (University of Lincolnshire and Humberside, England) - See all my reviews
Don't be misled by the apparently narrow title of this book - it is actually a very comprehensive text which addresses many pertinent areas to Facilities Management.

The material is excellent and up to date, offering useful case studies.

I shall be adopting this excellent book for my intermediate level and final level undergraduates.
