5.0 out of 5 stars
A book still useful in today's application,
By Chin Keung So (Hong Kong) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Facilities Management: Theory and Practice (Paperback)
It is a very useful book with keynote paper per topic. The content as in 1996 is still useful in nowaday's life. It also lists out an excellent further reading list.
